John Frusciante plays solo guitar on this great
song.

This is how he plays the E chord:

e|---------------------------| 
B|---------------------------| 
G|---------------------------|
D|--4--4--4--6---6--6--6--4--| 
A|--7--7--7--7---7--7--7--7--|
E|---------------------------|

And the A chord goes:

e|-----------------------------------| 
B|-----------------------------------| 
G|-----------------------------------|
D|--9---9---9---11---11--11--11--9---| 
A|--12--12--12--12---12--12--12--12--|
E|-----------------------------------|

Or play the A in the same way on the 6th string 5th fret.
The chords should be strummed.


Intro: E A

     E
Well heroin, heroin 
    A
And cocaine, cocaine 
             E
I loved them both 


         E
But they took my life, they took my friends 
           A
They won’t give ‘em back, well I want ‘em back 
	 E
Give ‘em back now 


    B
And what has it gotten me 
          A
Just some teeth I can’t chew 
	    E
My favorite cereal with 


Being cool 
And looking good 
Keith Richards and Lenny Bruce 
And all of them 
Well I give up 

Sometimes 
I’ll get sad 
Or I’ll get mad 
About where I should be 
And where I am 
I wanna go back 

But where has it gotten me 
I’m 35 years old now 
I wash dishes in a restaurant 

Well my friend Robert 
He can’t stop 
And his teeth are falling out 
And he’s living at his mom’s 
And it’s no fun 
No 

I guess I’m lucky to be alive 
Yeah I’m lucky I’m alive 
‘Cause I should be dead 
Well I have been dead 
But I’m not now 
No 

And what has it got me 
Just some teeth I can’t chew 
My favorite cereal with 

Where has it gotten me 
I’m 35 years old now 
Work in a fucking restaurant 

Well heroin 
Heroin 
And cocaine 
Cocaine 
I loved them both
