Red Hot Chili Peppers - Otherside

Am  F   C  G    

Am           F           C       G            Am   F    C 
How long how long will I slide... separate my side... I don't   
G                    Am  F   C                      G   
I don't believe it's bad...  slitin my throat, it's all I ever 

Am                         Em            Am                         Em   
I heard your voice through a photograph, I thought it up it brought up the past     
Am                      Em             G                      Am   
Once you know you can never go back, I've got to take it on the otherside   
    
Am                    Em           Am                    Em     
Centuries are what it meant to me, a cemetery where I marry the sea  
Am                          Em   
Stranger things could never change my mind   
G                      Am   
I've got to take it on the otherside    
G               Am        G           Am  
Take it on the otherside, take it on, take it on   
    
Am           F           C       G            Am   F    C 
How long how long will I slide... separate my side... I don't   
G                    Am  F   C                      G   
I don't believe it's bad...  slitin my throat, it's all I ever 


Am                  Em         Am                         Em    
Pour my life into a paper cup, the ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts   
Am                     Em           G                          Am         Am  Am Am
She wants to know am I still a slut  I've got to take it on the otherside....   
  
    
Am                  Em               Am                 Em   
Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed, a candidate for my soul mate bled     
Am                   Em              G                          Am   
Push the trigger and pull the thread I've got to take it on the otherside       
G              Am         G            Am   
Take it on the otherside, take it on, take it on
    
Am           F           C       G            Am   F    C 
How long how long will I slide... separate my side... I don't   
G                    Am  F   C                      G   
I don't believe it's bad...  slitin my throat, it's all I ever 

(Break) Em...... C...... Em..... C......  

Em                                  C   
Take me on take me for a hard ride. Burn me out leave me on the otherside   
Em   
I yell and tell it that it's not my friend    
C   
I tear it down I tear it down and then it's born again    
    
Solo: Am F C G  

Am           F           C       G            Am   F    C 
How long how long will I slide... separate my side... I don't   
G                    Am  F       C                      G   
I don't believe it's bad...  but slitin my throat, it's all I ever  

Am   F         C     G               Am      F   
(How long) I don't,  I don't believe it's sad     
C                 G             Am
But slitin my throat  It's all I ever
