Snow - Red Hot Chilli Peppers

The main riff consists of chords that are broken up into single notes (arpeggios). Store the chords visually in your memory and lay them down before you start playing. Use alternate picking and a hammer on/ pull off or for the triplet on the third beat.

Frusciante uses his thumb for chords with a bass note on the E string, just like his great hero Jimi Hendrix. So also in the chorus of this song. This technique allows you to use your little finger and thus opens up a whole new range of possibilities. Very nice and handy to learn.

Lyrics:

Come to decide that the things that I tried Were in my life just to get high on

When I sit alone Come get a little known But I need more than myself this time

Step from the road to the sea to the sky And I do believe that we rely on

When I lay it on Come get to play it on All my life to sacrifice

Hey oh Listen what I say, oh I got your hey oh Now listen what I say, oh

When will I know that I really can't go To the well once more time to decide on?

When it's killing me When will I really see All that I need to look inside

Come to believe that I better not leave Before I get my chance to ride

When it's killing me What do I really need All that I need to look inside

Hey oh Listen what I say, oh Come back and hey oh Look here what I say oh

The more I see, the less I know The more I like to let it go Hey oh, whoa, whoa, whoa

Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder Where it's so white as snow

Privately divided by a world so undecided And there's nowhere to go

In between the cover of another perfect wonder And it's so white as snow

Running through the field where all my tracks will be concealed And there's nowhere to go

When to descend to amend for a friend All the channels that have broken down

Now you bring it up I'm gonna ring it up Just to hear you sing it out

Step from the road to the sea to the sky And I do believe what we rely on

When I lay it on Come get to play it on All my life to sacrifice

Hey oh Listen what I say, oh I got your hey oh Listen what I say, oh

The more I see, the less I know The more I like to let it go Hey oh, whoa, whoa, whoa

Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder Where it's so white as snow

Privately divided by a world so undecided And there's nowhere to go

In between the cover of another perfect wonder Where it's so white as snow

Running through the field where all my tracks will be concealed And there's nowhere to go

I said hey, hey, yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, tell my love now Hey, hey, yeah, oh yeah, tell my love now

Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder Where it's so white as snow

Privately divided by a world so undecided And there's nowhere to go

Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder Where it's so white as snow

Running through the field where all my tracks will be concealed And there's nowhere to go

I said hey oh yeah, oh yeah Tell my love now Hey, yeah, yeah, oh yeah
