[Verse]
Am Em I heard your voice through a photograph Am Em I thought it up it brought up the past Am Em Once you know you could never go back G Am I've got to take it on the otherside Am Em Centuries are what it meant to me Am Em 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 Take it on the otherside G Take it on Am Take it on
[Chorus]

[Chorus] Em G Em G
Em Take me on take me for a hard ride G Burn me out leave me on the otherside Em I yell and tell it that It's not my friend G I tear it down I tear it down And then it's born again

Otherside Live - Red Hot Chili Peppers
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: K3VN
Email: k3vn_rokz@yahoo.com
This version I tabbed is from when the Red hot chili Peppers played in Hyde Park.
I think it is correct, if not close enough. This song is pretty simple and easy.
This was the first song I learned how to play. This is also my first tab so
please comment and enjoy!
Tuning: EADGBe
Light distortion or clean if preferred for this part.
Also listen to the song to get the strumming right.

Lyrics:
I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up; it brought up the past
Once you know you can never go back
I've got to take it on the otherside
Centuries are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I gotta take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Yeah take it on
Chorus:
Play

Lyrics:
Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts
She wants to know am I still a slut
I've got to take it on the otherside
A scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
A candidate for my soul mate bled
I push the trigger and I pull the thread
I've got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Yeah take it on
Lyrics:
How long, how long will I slide
Separate my side; I don't,
I don't believe it's bad
Slittin' my throat
it's all I ever...

---------------------------------------------------------------------- Acoustic cover of Red Hot Chili Peppers - Otherside
Tabbed by egidio, February 2011
Tuning : Standard
Hi. This is my acoustic cover of Otherside. It is inspired by this guy on Youtube : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0PpKYg47n4 . I liked his version, but i did not like the tabs he has for download. So i came up with an own version, and made a tab for it. It is pretty easy to play, just place your fingers like playing the chords Am, F, C and G and pick (Am, Em and G for the verse).

So I tried to make the song playable without a bass. It's alright as it is, but some parts need 2 guitars (mainly for the solo). I'll post most of what I know about the song though.
