Aeroplane
By The Red Hot Chili Peppers
Tabbed by: Andy B
This is my first attempt at guitar tablature, it is very detailed and I hope that it is easy to follow, if you are playing along to the CD you should be able to figure out the length of the notes yourself if you do not use the CD the this might be hard to
Follow,I honestly don't know. anyhoo I wish you good luck in playing this
great song.

1. A looking in my own eyes hello,
I can find the love I want,
Someone better slap me,
before I start to rust,
Before I start to decompose.
Looking in my rear view mirror
Looking in my rear view mirror
I can make it disappear,
I can make it disappear
Have no fear.

2. Sitting in my kitchen
Hey, Girl
I’m Turning into dust again
My melancholy baby
The star of Mazzy must
Push her force inside of me
I’m overcoming gravity
I’m overcoming gravity
It’s easy when you’re sad to be
It’s easy when you’re sad
Saddle up me.

Just one note could make me float
Could make me float away
One note from the song she wrote
Could fuck me where I lay
Just one note could make me choke
One Note that’s not a lie
Just one note could cut my throat
one note could make me die.
