Jack Johnson — Better Together (ver 5) Tab
*Tabbed by K. Diddy on 11/10/05*
Song: Better Together
Artist: Jack Johnson
Album: in between dreams
Tuning: Standard [EADGBE]
This tab is 100% perfect. This is how he plays it on the album, on AOL sessions, and
in concert. Nobody got the bridge right, and nobody nailed the ending solo either.
There is *NO CAPO* for this song! It's a basic strum pattern followed throughout the
entire song, so once you get it down you're good to go. Pluck the first note of the
chord, finger—strum the chord *up* and then knock the chord (mute it). Jack uses this
in a ton of his songs.
