jack Johnson Guitar Lesson (Better Together)

TABS OF SHAPES HERE! --- YES this is not exactly how Jack plays this. First...Sorry I'm so boring in the video! I'll have some coffee and shot of whisky next time. Anyway. Video is long cus I try to be really thorough. This is meant as a lesson in chord shapes. That is why I chose to play the chords this way instead of using a capo like Jack does sometimes. Hey, this way you can play the song whenever and not have to have a capo with you! Jack plays the first E chord as an A shape and then moves his first finger down one fret to play the Eflat note.

From the low sting to the high string (x means don't play that string)

Here is how I did it:
F = x8756x
F/E = x7756x
Dm = x57765
C = x3555x
Bb = 688766
F/A = 5x356x
Gm = 355333
C = x3555x

This is how Jack Plays it:
F = x8101010x
F/E = x7101010x
Dm = x57765
C = x3555x
Bb = 688766
Bb/A = 5887xx
Gm = 355333
C = x3555x
