Verse
RIVER PHOENIX:-

C     Amin
I'll  send,

C   Amin
Flo-wers,

C Amin
A-gain,

C   Amin
For her.

C           Amin
Miles  and  castles

C             Amin
Sand  castle  guests 

C        Amin
A  gift  described

   C               Amin
Disguised  as  my  rival.

G    F    Amin
G    F    Amin

(A really fast rap)
Life your life, no regrets, cycles did you hear,
dirty boys always seem.... (oh forget it!)

C    Amin
Murderess

C       Amin
Helping hands

C      Amin    C    Amin
In our soul be willful

C     Amin
Vader says  (what the hell?!) 

C              Amin
(St)-capturing hearts

C        Amin    C      Amin 
Jinx you give it to her falling


JOHN FRUSCIANTE: -

G       F       Amin
Fanta I sense          (what the hell?!)

G       F       Amin
(weird ass solo)
G       F       Amin



Then, the song changes:
|-------5-----------5|------------------|
|-------6-----------6|------------------|
|*--7-7---7-7-7-7-7--|-----------------*|
|*--7-7---7-7-7-7-7--|-10-10-10--------*|
|---5-5---5-5-5-5-5--|--8--8--8--8-8-8--|
|--------------------|-----------6-6-6--|

That is repeated for ages.


Then it changes to this:
|---------2---5-|-----------|---------|
|--1-x-1--3---6-|--1-----1--|---------|
|*-2-x-0--2---5-|--0--0--2--|--------*|
|*-2-x-2--------|--2--0--3--|--------*|
|------3--------|--3--2--3--|---------|
|---------------|-----3--1--|---------|


From here on, its pretty layered. I tried to keep it simple
|------------------------------------|
|--3------3-----3-----3-----3--------|
|----5-5----5-5---5-5---5-5----------|
|------------------------------------|
|------------------(repeat as needed)|
|------------------------------------|
