Artist: Red Hot Chili Peppers
Song: Purple Stain
Album: Californication
Track: Number 13

Tabbed by Mafioso

This tab is a complete run thru from the beginning of the song to 
the end. 

Obviously, the rhythm is only a general idea, what with the 
limitations of Notepad - but you should get the feel for the 
rhythm after a few attempts. 

Note that the backslash between the 12th and 7th fret 
on the E-string means that you should slide !STEADILY! 
from the E to the B note. 

The previous tab was innacurate, but i'm positive my transcription
is correct. 

This is the outcome of around 6 hours work, so,

!!ENJOY!!
