So I've tried this before on a Jack Johnson video and it worked really well. That's probably just because JJ fans are some of the most chill people ever, but here it goes. I'm 18 and play in a band with my best friend. We're just like everyone and are looking for a lucky break. Now who knows if this is going to do anything or not, but if you could check us out, or even just give this comment a thumbs up so some more people could listen to our stuff, it'd mean the world to us. Thanks so much.
One of my good friends who lost his battle to non-hodkgin's lymphoma about 7 months ago showed me this song. So beautiful. I miss ya buddy, and always will love you. Thank you so much for introducing me to this song.
i grew up listing to the radio you know a bunch of pop crap... then a few years my uncle introduced me to Jack Johnson... i don't know why they don't play Jack on the radio but i definitely a'm done with radio
umm I don't mean to misjudge anyone, that's just what I like in a guy. But hey, I don't know jack, he could be the opposite :P but, have a feeling his a genuine guy ;) he loves his wife, has a child and still can find time for music :) that to me is God's gift don't you think? :)
he is really awesome live i just saw him play at the hawaii theatre one great thing about being from hawaii is that jack is from here too and loves to play in front of the home crowd
@hawaiianjake are yougonna go to his kokua festival. I think thats how it's spelt haha. I live in Canada and he doesn't really come up here much sadly, probably too cold for him!
@JeremyMoar i got to go to the kokua festival this year and it was amazing, especially how he brought ziggy marley up and played three little birds for the closing song.
The nail on his thumb could be a bit longer than normal, and maybee he used that.... I dont know, but its a possibility :o) But he's good, a REAL artist...

Awsome! Love this song. Looks like he's playing 2 frets down than usual ?
lolzords4 3 years ago
yes, he is playing it 2 frets down than normal. starts with a C chord, G (10 freth), F (8th freth), Dm7 (5th fret).
and i do agree with you this version is BADASS
Aerrllanggaaa 2 years ago 2
are there tabs available illustrating this? as i can't figure it out for the life of me! and this is the baddestass version!
prorobo 2 years ago
Bro, its starts with a C (barre chord) then you slide the same position to the 9th fret, to the 7th then the last chord is the Dm7.
Chorus: C / Dm7 / F / C
hope this will help
Aerrllanggaaa 2 years ago
C barre 3rd to G barre 10th(A String) to F barre 8th (A string) to Dm7 5th fret (A String) back to C barre 3rd.
Then the transition is a Regular G barre 3rd (Estring) back to C barre 3rd(A) to Dm7 to a Regular F back to a C barre 3rd.
Hope this helps.
