Red Hot Chili Peppers
Scar Tissue
Tabbed out by MattW

This version is 100% correct. That's cuz it's out of the tab book (ssshhh). The only way 
you can get a Chili Peppers tab really good is out of a book so here it is.

The intro is done on guitar ONLY. But if you get bored playing on your own then play this

No Picture devon Average	#1 by devon at May 9, 2006 at 1:14 AM EST
	i dunno - i may be soooo wrong - but i always thought it was about self harm - right from the first time i heard it! Its about lonelyness - how people are never there - how sometimes people do feel sooo alone - like there is no1 around. But i dunno - i just get the impression it is self harm - because it is lonelyness.......... "Scar tissue the I wish you saw - Sarcastic Mister know it all" --- kinda like he/she is cutting - because of this person - wishing they could see what their doing to them "Blood loss in a bathroom stall - Sounthern girl with a scarlet drawl" ---- cutting in the bathroom - bleeding - having nowhere to go - stuck in a world - with what feel like 4 walls..... "Wave goodbye to ma and pa 'cause...." ------ this maybe the end - things have got to much - cant take it any more. "I'll make it to the moon if i have to crawl" ------ they will be free - away from everything - kinda like there mision to get there. "With the bird I'll share - this loney view..." ------ there is no1 esle there - all alone - looking at things but knowing cant be a part of it So yeah - i am not sure though - maybe its just me.......being stupid - and completly getting the wrong end of the stick ! What do u think.....................? Can you see this loney view - or is that just me................? x x x x x x x x x x x x

	i love anthony kiedis and the rest of the chili peppers as well!! this song is amazing..i first heard this song driving in a car with my mom...tears just started pouring from my eyes and i couldnt stop it..the song is just so beautiful especially on the nice summer day i 1st heard it on.this song reminds me of summer .and i believe the meaning is...lonliness...feeling like theres no1 to turn to...trying to get away from ur hometown perhaps .and starting a new life though it will be a struggle on the way.say goodbye to ma and pa could mean he is finally on his own..facing the world on his own without the help of those who have cared for him all along.he needs to get through this on his own and in the end he will be happy with himself.

	well tubesocks "autumns sweet but we call it fall" seems really depressing to me because it could be bitter sweet and why wouldn't they just keep calling it autumn if it were so sweet, plus fall could mean emotionally and autumn is the season where thing begin to die so I think it would be more depressing that optimistic

No Picture Harmless Wanna Be	#4 by Harmless at Jul 17, 2006 at 5:11 AM EST
	I had never thought about that angle Puddle (self-harm), but it seems to make sense - I think more generally it is about solitude, isolation and the inability to open oneself to the world. The verse about the "Southern Girl" shows one side of isolation - depression and loneliness, where self-harm or suicide is a way to show your pain to the world. Being with the birds could mean the afterlife in this context, seeing the world from above. But then the later verse about "autumn's sweet" and "I'll make it the moon if i have to crawl" seems optimistic to me. It's still about isolation and loneliness, but it's saying that it's okay to be independent and be yourself. This verse reminds me of the book "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" by Richard Bach about the struggle a seagull has because he is different than any other seagull. He strays from the flock and does what he wants and in the end he finds true happiness. To me this song seems to be about the struggle to open up and move from despair to acceptance of who you are.

	Beautiful song, it's amazing, i havn't the faintest what it's about, but for some reason i don't mind because the lyrics are just so perfect, Amazing song :) xXxXx

	I think it's about being lonely and you're sad 'cause there isn't any girls around to talk to. Yup. Cool song.
