Jack Johnson-I Got You (Single)
Tuning: E-A-D-G-B-E
Chords: E 7/7/9/9/9/7
B 7/9/9/8/7/7
F# 2/4/4/3/2/2/
B/D# X/6/9/8/7/6
[Intro]
E - B
E - B
E - B
F#- B/D# - F#
That's the easy way to play it.
If you play the song alone, you can pick the cords like that and
whistle the melody,
because than it sounds nicer:
E B E B
e|--7-------------------|-----------|--7----------------|------------------|
B|---------9------------|--7--------|--------9----------|--7---------------|
G|----9------9----8-----|----8------|----9-----9----8---|----9--8----------|
D|-----9------9-----9---|-----9-----|-----9-----9-----9-|------------------|
A|--7-----(7)----(7)----|------9----|--7----(7)----(7)--|------------------|
E|----------------------|--7--------|-------------------|--7----7----------|
E B F# B/D# F#
e|--7-------------------|----------------|--2------------------|--2--------|
B|---------9------------|--7------7-\-4--|--2---------7--------|---2-------|
G|----9------9----8-----|----8-----------|--3----------8-------|-----------|

A|--7-----(7)----(7)----|------9---------|--4--4--4/6-----6\4--|-----------|
E|----------------------|--7-------------|--2------------------|-----------|
Or the version Jack plays (including some bass tones I didn't fix but they belong to the
chords so it's no problem to play them):

[Verse 1]
E B
Back when all my little goals seemed so important
E B
Every pot of gold fill and full of distortion
E B
Heaven was a place still in space not in motion
F#
But soon

[Verse 2]
E
We went walking through the hills
B
Tryin' to pretend that we both know
E
Maybe if we save up
B
We can build a little home
E
But then the hell storm came and yelled,
B F#
"You need to let go, you've got no control. No."
