John Anthony Frusciante (born in New York on March 5th 1970) though probably best known for his time as guitarist of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, is a respected, acclaimed and prolific solo artist in his own right. Joining the Chili Peppers in 1988 after the death of Hillel Slovak, the band's original guitarist, Frusciante was featured on both Mother's Milk and Blood Sugar Sex Magik. However, John's rise was short lived. On May 7th, 1992, John quit the band just before the Chili Peppers were due on stage.

Note : The Dmaj7 which is on another tab on this site, is not in this song. It's just a fingering for the F#m that makes it sounds almost like a Dmaj7. Then, John Frusciante a C#m not a Bm or a E like the previous tab said. So enjoy this tab ! JF rules !
