Artist: Red Hot Chili Peppers
Album : By The Way
Song : Cabron
This is a complete tab of the great song "Cabron"
from the Red Hot Chili Peppers' great new album
"By The Way". There was a chord file previously
released on this song, but as they stated in the
file, it was not finished, and it also contained
some errors. Here is the corrected and complete
tab of the song.
You need a capo on the 7th fret on this song.
So when the tab says 0 or 3, its really on the
7th and 10th fret on your guitar.
Special credits to the guys making the first chord
file of this song.
Enjoy!

This is the intro to the verse, its also
played mid-song between the two (long)
verses, forming a kind of bridge between
the two.

These chords are played repeatedly in the verse.
The verses are fairly long, and try playing
only the thin strings, dont play the whole
chord. When you hear them play the song,
it sounds almost like he is playing
it banjo-style.

This solo is played by a second guitar,
and they use a bottleneck to get the
sliding effect. The two solos are very
similar, they only differ in the length
and the final slide.
Thats it, enjoy the song!
