So, here's a tab of Jack's newest single, "If I Had Eyes," which will be officially
on December 11th, ultimately to come out on his album "Sleeping Through The Static," due out
February.
This tab is gonna be very basic, just to give you an idea of how to play the song, and
to expect with regards to chords. It's very simple and straight-forward, so I hope this
you out in some way.
Chords (can be played in any variation, this is just the way i hear it)
D Alternate form of A5, for the chorus
The little riff
If I had eyes in the back of my head
I would have told you that you looked good as I walk away
(play riff)
If you could have tried to trust the hand that fed
you would have never been hungry but you'd never really be...
more of this or less or is there any difference or are we just holding on to
things that we don't have anymore?
Chorus:
Sometimes time doesn't heal
no not at all
it just stands still
while we fall
in or out of love again
i doubt i'm gonna
win you back when you've got
eyes like that
you won't let me in (hear the "Yeah!")
always looking out > (Play riff here)
woo ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh, ooh woo ooh
Verse 2:
Lot of people spend their time just floating
we were victims together but lonely
you got hungry eyes that just can't look forward
can't give them enough, but we just can't start over (play the riff next)
building with (thin nails)?, we're falling but holding
i don't want to take up anymore of your time
time, time, time
Sometimes time doesn't heal
no not at all
it just stands still
while we fall
in or out of love
again i doubt i'm gonna
win you back when you've got
eyes like that
won't let me in
always looking out
oooh ooh ooh, ooh woo ooh ooh
always lookin
D5 A5 G5 Bm (repeat until end)
I know this is a pretty rough tab, but considering that the single hasn't even
been released yet, I hope you can make do. Thanks to casio g.c. from the Jack Johnson message
for the lyrics, which i modified slightly. Enjoy this, and keep listening to JJ.
