How to read tabs? 



Song: Cabron
Album: By The Way
Artist: RedHotChiliPeppers
Tabbed by: jerrymustbeslaughtered@hotmail.com



The other tab on this site says capo 7th fret, but I put it on the 12th. 
Either way, I'm positive John uses one somewhere on the neck. 
But for this tab, you can put the capo on the 12th fret, or just play without. 
All notes are relative to the capo.

This is my first tab, so e-mail me if I screwed anything up.

  This whole thing can be converted into two guitars,
  if you can train your fingers to hit the notes right.
  If you only have two guitars performing the last note,
  have one guitar do a standard D (XX0232), and have the
  other one do this: (XXX775)
