Red Hot Chili Peppers - The Zephyr Song Live At Slane Castle guitar tab
TABBED BY: McLeach
Red Hot Chili Peppers
The Zephyr Song
Live At Slane Castle
Here is The Zephyr Song tabs that you have been waiting for.
I've worked hard with watching and listening the DVD, and here you have it as correct as you can get!
It is so nice song to play (like all Chili's songs) and especially the outro is amazing.
Please check out my other RHCP tabs, they're also as correct as they get!
TIPS: (h)=hammer, (b)=bend, (/)=slide, (~)=vibrato, (p)=pull-off
TUNING: EADGBe, you have to highlight the high sounds, cause the verses are
played on the upper strings.
