________________________________________________________________________________________

I watched Frusciante doing the verse on the live version and he does full up & down

strokes, instead of picking the notes as fast as he can and making his hand tired.

SO instead of picking the notes as fast as YOU can and making your hand tired,

try this, this is the way I play it and it sounds much better (at least I think it

does).I think it makes the sound a bit fuller & richer and also more like the way

he plays it. Basically you’re just palm muting all the strings that you don’t want to play.

This is just a suggestion, if you don\\'t want to play it like this then just skip this

little section, but I\\'m tellin\\' ya, once you get it it\\'s easier. It might just take some

getting used to.

to play the verse, just whichever one you prefer.
