John Anthony Frusciante (born in New York on March 5th 1970) though probably best known for his time as guitarist of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, is a respected, acclaimed and prolific solo artist in his own right. Joining the Chili Peppers in 1988 after the death of Hillel Slovak, the band's original guitarist, Frusciante was featured on both Mother's Milk and Blood Sugar Sex Magik. However, John's rise was short lived.

John Frusciante, né John Anthony Frusciante le 5 mars 1970 à Astoria (dans le borough du Queens à New York City), est un auteur-compositeur-interprète, guitariste, et producteur américain.  Il est connu pour avoir été pendant plusieurs années guitariste du groupe de rock californien Red Hot Chili Peppers, avec lequel il a enregistré cinq albums studio. John Frusciante mène également une carrière solo active.

John Anthony Frusciante (Nueva York, NY, Estados Unidos, 5 de marzo de 1970) es un guitarrista, cantante, compositor y productor estadounidense, que formaba parte de la banda de funk rock Red Hot Chili Peppers. Frusciante ha desarrollado una activa carrera musical en solitario, ya que ha editado nueve álbumes y ha colaborado con artistas como Josh Klinghoffer y Joe Lally bajo el nombre de Ataxia.

The Will To Death

Intro:  
   
 A  E  C#m  C7  F#m         4x

Verse:

A                          E
 We make the music that divides you
 C#m        C7              F#m
It's handed down as a thing to cry to

A                               E
 And all my wars they treat you kindly
 C#m         C7                 F#m
There's nothing more important that I see

A                              E 
 There was a time when all was empty
C#m        C7              F#m  
 Unorganized a clog a death scene

A                                E
 Things opened up and there's so many
C#m        C7              F#m 
 Paths to walk ports of entry


Chorus:

E            F#m
Now that I'm gone
E            F#m
Now that I'm long gone
     E                   F#m
This minute has come and gone
        B          F#m             A   E
I never said to do anything but forget me
E          F#m
I can't be lost
E                            F#m
I've learned everything from loss
          E                        F#m
For what's gained there's an inner cost
D        A      E     Bm
I wont pay it I never would

Verse:

We met the seasons back in Long Town
There was a hint of sadness going round
We met the brothers who drove arrows
And shot assumptions wide and narrow
I know I mean what I'm forgetting
We give for everything we're getting
A lot that hasn't been put away
It's building up for that fateful someday

Chorus:

Now that I'm gone
Now that I'm long gone
This minute has come and gone
I never said to do anything but forget me
When it seems I'm around
Check again what's up and what's down
Many silences make a sound
I'm before the equation and I'm the answer

Bridge and solo:

   A       E      Bm      A       E       D

Loss

Verse

C           G         Am         Fmaj7

And we will show that wherever you are

C            F         C

that is where all time starts

C                  G    Am            Fmaj7

It's a pleasure to die a pleasure to be gone

C        G           C

Into the sky we move on


Chorus

Em       Am        Fmaj7   C       G   Am

Life is unchanging It let me go

Em         Am    Fmaj7  Am C  G   Am  Fmaj7  Am  Fmaj7

Life gave me up and I    have no control

       G        C  G  Am
                
I have no control

C F# Am

Verse 2

Everything goes a way that I do not
I clean up the clouds I ride
I've never been up where I see the others climb
Seems like it must be nice

Chorus 2

Laughters an ugly friend of mine
We share the best and the worst of times

Verse 3

Everyone goes where they belong
Nobody goes elswhere
Never much thought goes to being
right or wrong

Solo

C G Am Fmaj7 3x

Am G Am Fmaj7 2x

Am Fmaj7

Unchanging

E        G#m     A
Do you throw it in the well
E           G#m     A
Wishing you had someone to tell
E        G#m     A
What it was that you wished for
E                   G#m     A
So it couldn't come true anymore
F#m    C#m     G#m
I've thrown so much away
F#m         C#m     G#m
These times die and stay alive
F#m    C#m     G#m
I've gone and i've stayed
F#m                 C#m     G#m
And the both happened at the same time
F#m    C#m     G#m
I know which one i like
A            B
And which one i hate

Ukelele for Piano part: C#m - G#m - F#m - E - G#m

C#m               G#m        F#m           E      G#m
You never change to fire if you're ice
C#m               G#m        F#m           E      G#m   
Even if you melt on a table and dry
C#m                       G#m        F#m           E      G#m
And that table is burned, I'll tell you why
A                      B
'Cuz you stayed by going away
A                      B
and life changes not you

Ohh part: E - F#m - G#m - A - B

A                      B
every time is contained in now
A                      B
now is only time anything happens
A                      B
though one moments shot in infinity's rounds
A                      B
now is the one time anything happens 
E    F#m    G#m - A - B 
here, here, here...

Uhhumm..away ahh  (2x)

Oh ham          

A       E                    F#m
I can't disguise the things I do
             D          A              Bm
And things I say have a way of hurting you
 C#m      F#m
I'm over there
                 D          A
These dreams are all I have left
                Bm           A
I've nothing to spare.....eee
      Bm         F#m

D       E    D  
Uhhumm..away ahh (2x)

Oh ham          

A           E               F#m   
I can't pretend to be who I'm not
              D               A           
And there are things you need from me
          Bm
I haven't got
  C#m         F#m
No way but to end
           D              A
Pick up the pieces of our lives
               Bm           A
And maybe love again........

                 Bm                D
There's only one way for things to be (4x) 
E                A                     
Between you and me

Far Away

A E C#m x4

A                E C#m
I didn't lose you
A                       E C#m
In those fights I fought
D          A        G
  I don't owe anyone
  A                         E C#m
I've been sleeping all night
A                  E  C#m
  These times I recall
D           A            G
  They come out they come clean
A                E C#m
 I've been asleep 
A                E C#m
 On top of myself
D       A            G
 I was born in the morning
D    A       G
  I died at night, people 
Bm      F#m         A      Em
 I was found in a mirror, baby

       Em     Bm  A  G
They couldn't get me out
    Em   Bm           A   G
In these times, time runs out
   F#m  Em  
It runs out

Em      Bm         G   C Em
Day - dreams are along her
Em    Bm           G C Em     
Hey, feelings are goners
C             G                   Am F E 
  I've been sleeping once and for all

Em   Bm         G C Em   
    Mirros are water
Em      Bm        G     C     Em    
Hey, a symbol of what death's not
C            G                   Am F E   
  Catch my meaning, once and for all 
C           G               E 
  I'm the ceiling, I'm the wall


Em   Bm           D     C    Em     D  C Em
 You can't stand inside with me
                   Bm             D   C   Em    
(But the) reverse of me is where you must be 
C              G       Am F E    
   In truths place is lies
C           G         Em
    The mistakes you try


Am                F              C         G   
Someone must be sleeping because all is quiet
             Am           F                C       G
Is there nothing in the mirror, when you shut the light
F   Am    F   Am
The dark, the light
F   Am   F    Am
The dark, the light

Regret

C       C/B        Am Am/G
I was afraid to be me
F               G
 Be anyone you want to be
F               G
 Be anyone you want to be
C         C/B     Am Am/G
I don't blame my weak

For my not being able to speak
F         G                      C   C
Clearly about things I've said before

            Em   F                     C               G
And if it's light outside night will fall night will fall
             Em F      C           G  F  Em  F
And if it's life it resolves it resolves

Anywhere you are in a maze is a lie

Verse 1
          A           E                  F#m
 I take a second walk down the street of fame
      A               E           F#m
 I've paid it off and paid for it again
           A         E              F#m
 All these miserable feelings never end
        A                 E               F#m
 But to fall and be downs something I transcend

 I've been a meal of mine and slid down my throat
             A         E               F#m
 And all I'm facing is one more way to go
         A              E        F#m
 Died so many times and then reappeared
           A                     E                F#m
 All death looks like to me is a word that causes fear

Verse 3
A    E      F#m    F#m   
 I'm taking my place
A     E                 F#m    F#m   
 In a world with different space
A           E               F#m   
 No time at all except how you move
     A                E                  F#m   
Be who you are, do what you do, not win or lose

Murderers

To Record Only Water For Ten Days 

Am,C, F, Dm
I'm central to nowhere
Thinking of sweeping it clean
When we choose to go we're losing more than just our surroundings
I've gone around the sides of this universe as it stands
Outside the limits of all existence
Where light never ends

F, C, Dm
We should be grateful to the gods
F, C, Dm, Am, C, F Dm
Whoever they're real to they are
F, C, Dm
I value my placement as in Hell
F, C, Dm, Am, C, F Dm
Remember that moment that I fell, hey hey hey.

Am,C, F, Dm
Anything that could one day be is as real as what I'm saying
If something is nothing, it must not be something in any possible way
Lo-lo-lose yourself in the far off worlds that are right under your feet
Switch below with above all the way up into infinity

F, C, Dm
We should be thankful who we are
F, C, Dm, Am, C, F Dm
Whether we know ourselves or not
F, C, Dm
Walking alongside myself
F, C, Dm, Am, C, F Dm
Neither of us listens very well

Am.G,F
I'm dreading a time that is not near
As a man on cross I have no fear
I can't believe these words I'm saying

Dm
You gotta feel your lines
You gotta feel your lines

(repeat...)

¿Qué, alguien me nombró?

  Oh, yo sólo lazo el sol

De nada, para estirar tu diversión

De nada dudes ya
Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F
  es el mapa de lo que gané
C
  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos
E7
  Ve al pequeñín mini Maui nomás zapateando,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ¡Hey!

School Friends

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye

You were staying out all night and I had enough

       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us

It Ain't Me

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
