Minor Thing Great Example of John's rhythm guitar talent . Intro/Verse: The other Tab for this song on OLGA doesn't sound the way that Frusciante is playing it. These chords make the song sound great on my acoustic. Add your own thoughts to the rhythm since this is only my general idea. e|--0-000-000-0-000-00-------------(999-977-7)| | This part (999-977-7) is excluded B|.-5-555-555-5-555-557-7-777-777-7-777-777-7-|.| on the Repeat G|--6-666-666-6-666-669-7-777-777-7-777-777-7-| | D|.-4-444-444-4-444-447-7-777-777-7-777-777-7-|.| A|--------------------0-5-555-555-5-555-555-5-| | E|--------------------------------------------| | This small interlude occurrs about thirty seconds into the song and one more time: e|-555-555-12---------| B|-777-777-12-777-777-| G|-666-666-13-777-777-| D|-444-444-14-777-777-| A|------------555-555-| E|--------------------| During the Rap: slide *pick fast \/ e|----------------------------------------------| B|--7-7--7-7--7-7--7-7--7-7--7-7--10-10-/-12-12-| G|--6-6--6-6--6-6--6-6--6-6--6-6---9--9---11-11-| D|----------------------------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------| After the first rap the verse is played three times. the first without the repeat. Outro: the outro chords are E and F# although i can't decide how they are played. I've tried them in the form of A and they sound ok but there has to be another way. i'm not going to tab the solo, or outro solo since i noticed another tab for this song with the solos pretty much all there. Even if you think this tab is wrong, it will ok, 'cause i think it sounds good especially acoustically. (is that a word?)
