Flake-Jack Johnson

[Jack]

Here it goes! First Tab. The whole song is mainly chords, and the strumming pattern is the same to many songs, such as summer breeze (aldrine did a lesson on that song)

Strumming Pattern= v ^ X, ^ ^ v X (down up chunk, up up down chunk)

And all the chords are...

-Dm
A |----0------|
E |----1------|
C |----2------|
G |----2------|

-F
A |----0------|
E |----1------|
C |----0------|
G |----2------|

-Bb
A |----1------|
E |----1------|
C |----2------|
G |----3------|

-A
A |----0------|
E |----0------|
C |----1------|
G |----2------|

-C
A |----3------|
E |----0------|
C |----0------|
G |----0------|

Hope you Jack Johnson lovers find this useful =D


Edit: Thanks Kanaka. I rewrote the tab for the code form.

Thanks for the tab! Another one to add to the Jack Johnson list. I'm not familiar with code, but isn't it possible to make the viewing window larger so we don't need to scroll horizontally? It seems like it would fit on the screen if you enlarged it.

 

[Fred Miu]

Diezo also plays it on youtube, and recently posted the tabs with the song for all of his songs too. though he plays alternitive chords, here is the video to get a feel as well of how to play http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUbUJIXBUKw

usually when you use it in Code, it fixes it.

 

[deadeye]

he plays same chords just higher up the fret

Yea, that was me . . . no changes were made to the original tab, just used the BB Code to enclose it (Wraps

 around selected text) to align the tab. See this [URL="http://www.ukuleleunderground.com/forum/showthread.php?t=940"][B]thread[/B][/URL] for info about posting tabs.

Thanks again
TIm

 

[Jroby]

nice tab!

[OO_KOO_HAH_OH_LAY]

Reviving an old thread... Did anyone ever tab that last part of the song (starting at 3:17)?

 

[OO_KOO_HAH_OH_LAY]

Okay, decided to work it out myself. Still working on the solo lead-in to the last part, but here's the chords/ lyrics for the end:

Fm
The harder that you try baby, the further you'll fall
C
Even with all the money in the whole wide world
Fm
Please please please don't pass me
Bb
Please please please don't pass me
Fm C Fm
Please please please don't pass me by
(same progression)
Everything you know about me now baby you gonna have to change
You gonna have to call it by a brand new name
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me down
(same progression)
Just like a tree down by the water baby I shall not move
Even after all the silly things you do
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me down (fade out)
