Jack Johnson's Cocoon Cover

This is my favorite song by Jack Johnson. I had Jeff transposed the key from A to G, cause I sound less suckier that way. It's a lot different from the original, more upbeat and jazzy like. And I think I know this song by heart but since I got the lyrics in front of me, I just had to check them every single time and spoil it. My bad. ;p This session was particularly funny because we had to do it a couple of times before it sounded pretty okay to us. It was either I messed up the lyrics or Jeff messed up the chords. But it was fun nonetheless.

Lyrics;
based on your smile
im betting all of this might be over soon
but youre bound to win
because if im betting against you, i think id rather lose
but this is all that i have, so please
take whats left of this heart, and use
please use only what you really need
you know i only have so little, so please
mend your broken heart and leave
i know its not your style
and i can tell by the way that you move its real real soon
but im on your side
and i dont want to be your regret, id rather be your cocoon
but this is all that you have, so please
let me take whats left of your heart, and i will use
i swear ill use only what i need
i know you only have so little, so please
let me mend my broken heart
you said this was all you have
and its all i need
but blah blah blah
because it fell apart
i guess its all you knew
and all i had
but now we have
only confused hearts
i guess all we have
is really all we need
so please
lets take these broken hearts, and use
lets use only what we really need
you know we only have so little, so please
take these broken hearts and leave

Great voice and great guitarplay, but I think the song is better with a more slow tact. Good luck by the way!
