Knock Me Down
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Subject: KNOCK ME DOWN by The Red Hot Chili Peppers

I was awed into dismay when I saw no trace of this song on the internet.  So 
I decided to figure it out (guitar-wise).  I find that some of the lead 
guitar lines are difficult to figure out so I have just transcribed the
simplest chordal parts of this song.  I am not sure that most of the minor
chords are sevenths but the song has a cool sound to it and minor sevenths
usually do that.  So examine this and write back if you find a problem or if
you want to discuss how it is possible for an object~s dimension to approach
infinity while it~s mass approaches zero while approaching the speed of 
light.  

The opening riff is:

Of course you hold the  chord at the end then the verse appears:

Never too soon to be through
Being cool too much too soon
Too much for me, too much for you
You~re gonna lose in time
             *
Don~t be afraid to show your friends
That you hurt inside, inside
Pain~s part of life
           *
Don~t hide behind your false pride
It~s a lie, you lie

If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
(?)
I~m not bigger than life
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
(?)
I~m not bigger than life

I~m tired of being untouchable
I~m not above the love
I~m part of you and you~re part of me
Why did you go away
                      *
Finding what you~re looking for can end up
Being such a bore
              *
I pray for you most everyday, I pray for you
Now  fly  away

If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
(?)
I~m not bigger than life
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
(?)
I~m not bigger than life

(very quickly now, the guitar and bass plays:

Cool solo part:                           

all I just did here was to write down the rhythm chords, I have and will not
do the solo (as little as it may seem).  If you listen to the album, you can
figure out how these chords come in.  The  part is when the guitar
slides from  to .  Listen and you shall hear, my child.  Anyway, the 
rest goes something like this:

If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
(?)
I~m not bigger than life
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
(?)
I~m not bigger than life
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
(?)
I~m not bigger than life
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
(?)
I~m not bigger than life
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
I~m not bigger than life
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
I~m not bigger than life

It~s so lonely when you don~t even know yourself, it~s so lonely
It~s so lonely when you don~t even know yourself, it~s so lonely...

Please escuse all the redudancy and other things.  I shall explain the 
chords now and how I play them.  Please remember that this is my best 
estimate of this sad song.  If you find any errors or so on could you please
email me.  Anyway, before explaining every chords, I must explain that the
(?) chord does not really exist.  I am not sure if there is another chord
that ends the normal chorus so I presume that the  chord sustains.  So my
denoting (?) means that I am not sure if it is the  chord that is 
playing at that time.  And also, my ways of playing these chords are not by
gospel.  Anyway, here we go:

Now that I have wasted countless computer space (and if this is printed out,
the trees will die).  But I hope this helps out a lot.  Bye-bye...
