John Frusciante - Maybe Live guitar tab
Maybe
Originally by The Chantels
Performed Live by John Frusciante
Red Hot Chili Peppers Live at Atlantic Pavillion, Lisbon, Portugal (24th January 2003)
Hey! :)
This is a warmful, beatiful, cute tiny little song that John Frusciante uses to play live,
and he played it in the first and only RHCP's concert I've ever been on. It was in 24th
January 2003, in the Atlantic Pavillion, Lisbon, Portugal.
John played this The Chantels' song between "Around The World"'s fury and the happy rythmed
"Universally Speaking".
On to the music, these are the chords you have to know:
A# Bb(?) Gm Eb F
e]-----6-----6-----3-----3-----1-----]
B]-----6-----6-----3-----4-----1-----]
G]-----7-----8-----3-----3-----2-----]
D]-----8-----8-----5-----5-----3-----]
A]-----8-----8-----5-----6-----3-----]
E]-----6-----6-----3-----3-----1-----]
I am pretty sure that the second chord above is not really called "Bb", 'cause, you know Bb
the same as A#, so it can't be named Bb or it would be exactly the same as the previous
chord, but... The change is so tiny that I didn't knew what to call it. So it is called
"Bb" just for you to get the difference. :)
And there's this lick (That I'll call "Interlude"):
e]-----------------]
B]-----------------]
G]-----------------]
D]-----------------]
A]-----------------]
E]--1--1--3--5--6--]
And the song goes:
(Interlude)
A# Gm Eb
Maybe if I pray every night
F
You'll come back to me
A# Gm Eb
And maybe if I cry every day
F
You'll come back to stay
A# Bb A# Bb A# Bb (Keep changing between these chords as long as you want:))
Oh, Maybe
(Interlude)
A# Gm Eb
Maybe if I hold your hand
F
You will understand
A# Gm Eb
And maybe if I kiss your lips
F
I'll be at your command
A# Bb A# Bb A# Bb
Oh, Maybe
(Interlude)
(John Frusciante usually plays the song until this point, but if you wish to continue and sing
the whole song, the chords are all the same! ;))
I prayed and prayed to the Lord
To send you back, my Love
But instead you came to me
Only in my dream
Maybe if I pray every night
You'll come back to me
And maybe if I cry every day
You'll come back to stay
Oh, Maybe
(Maybe Maybe Maybe)
Maybe
(Maybe Maybe Maybe)
I'm pretty sure this is the correct tab, 'cause I saw John playing it in front of me.
And I say that John Frusciante is an amazing artist!!! ;)
Well, hope you enjoy!
RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS!
