BY THE WAY, Tabbed by fruscianteisgod (andrew murdoch)

hey everyone, i tabbed this song with a vocal remover (which u can download at yogen.com) so i know this is 100% correct even if you dont agree, try it with the vocal remover and you'll see i'm right, plus ive watched john play it live and i know this is how its done.


intro: the guitar only plays 1 note at a time here! the other is played by flea on
bass (but all the bass tabs are wrong too:S)

Verse 1: the 'chugga-chugga' here is played using an elector harmonix pedal but u can get a similar effect using a boss CS-3 with the sustain and attack set quite high and the tone set roughly half way and with a wah pedal pushed toe down (most treble position)
