Otherside

Red Hot Chili Peppers

Tom: Am

[Intro] Am  F  C  G

Am                F
   How long, how long
         C
Will I slide?
 G           Am  F
Separate my side
   C
I don’t
   G                  Am  F
I don’t believe it’s bad
  C
Slit my throat
     G
It’s all I ever

[Segunda Parte]

Am
   I heard your voice
            Em
Through a photograph
Am
   I thought it up
           Em
It brought up the past
Am
   Once you know
         Em
You can never go back
             G
I’ve got to take it on
    Am
The otherside

Am
   Centuries are what
    Em
It meant to me
Am
   A cemetery
         Em
Where I marry the sea
Am
   Stranger things could never
  Em
Change my mind
             G
I’ve got to take it on
    A
The otherside
 G             A
Take it on the otherside
 G
Take it on
 A
Take it on

Am                F
   How long, how long
         C
Will I slide?
 G           Am  F
Separate my side
   C
I don’t
   G                  Am  F
I don’t believe it’s bad
  C
Slit my throat
     G
It’s all I ever

[Quarta Parte]

Am
   Pour my life
        Em
Into a paper cup
Am
   The ashtray’s full
          Em
And I’m spillin’ my guts
Am
   She wants to know
       Em
Am I still a slut
             G
I’ve got to take it on
    A
The otherside

Am
   Scarlet starlet
          Em
And she’s in my bed
Am
   A candidate
        Em
For my soul mate bled
Am
   Push the trigger
     Em
And pull the thread
             G
I’ve got to take it on
    A
The otherside
 G             A
Take it on the otherside
 G
Take it on
 A
Take it on

Am                F
   How long, how long
         C
Will I slide?
 G           Am  F
Separate my side
   C
I don’t
   G                  Am  F
I don’t believe it’s bad
  C
Slit my throat
     G
It’s all I ever

Turn me on

Take me for a hard ride

Burn me out

Leave me on the otherside

I yell and tell

It that it’s not my friend

I tear it down, I tear it down

And then it’s born again

[Solo]

Am                F
   How long, how long
         C
Will I slide?
 G           Am  F
Separate my side
   C
I don’t
   G                  Am  F
I don’t believe it’s bad
  C
Slit my throat
     G
It’s all I ever

Am
   How long?
I don't
I don’t believe it’s bad
Slit my throat
It’s all I ever had

How long, how long will I slide?
Separate my side, I don’t
I don’t believe it’s bad
A slit in my throat, it’s all I ever

I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up and 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’ve got to take it on the otherside

Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on

How long, how long will I slide?
Separate my side, I don’t
I don’t believe it’s bad
A slit in my throat, it’s all I ever

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

Scarlet starlet and she’s in my bed
A candidate for my soul mate bled
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
Take it on

How long, how long will I slide?
Separate my side, I don’t
I don’t believe it’s bad
A slit in my throat, it’s all I ever

Turn me on, take me for a hard ride
Burn me out, leave me on the otherside
I yell and tell it that it’s not my friend
I tear it down, I tear it down and then it’s born again

How long, how long will I slide?
Separate my side, I don’t
I don’t believe it’s bad
A slit in my throat it’s all I ever had

(How long?)
I don't, I don’t believe it’s bad
A slit in my throat, it’s all I ever
