basse Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers
Californication
Album: Californication
Tabbed Correction by: Stephen Short (sms_stylee@yahoo.com)
Originally tabbed by Robert Petersson (mrschh@post.netlink.se)

The original tab was good, but parts of the prechorus and chorus
were wrong and I changed the way the verse is played. I'm about
99.9% sure this is how Flea plays it.

Chorus 3: Same as Chorus 2

That's it, but the only hard part is learning the variations on
the Prechorus. Visit my band's site at http://syngd.20m.com
