Fortune Faded Chords & Tabs
Song: Fortune Faded
Artist: Red Hot Chili Peppers
Bassist: Michael "Flea" Balzary
Album: Greatest Hits
Im pretty sure this is 95% correct. The basic ideas are all set i think and
the only parts that im not 100% sure about are the fills in the choruses
Key
Slide Up - /
Slide Down - \
Hammer-on - h
Pull-off - p
Dead Note - x
(x16) Means play that note 16 times
* Means emphasize the note (example:D|---*-|This means emphasize the 7 on A)
A|---7-|
If the note is on the G-string then the * will be below instead of on top
Timing Key:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 -> The + sign indicates 8th notes
*If notes are found in between the number and the + sign that indicates 16th notes. (As in Intro)*
If the timing makes it confusing then just listen to it its pretty easy to get.
