The Killers - "Jenny Was a Friend of Mine" (Tabbed by nuke126@gmail.com) ------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the true way to play the song. I watched many live videos and this is exactly Dave Keuning plays. All the other tabs for the song are wrong (not being a jackass, it's the truth). The chords may look odd, but Dave played jazz guitar in high school and it his playing. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tune a 1/2 step down (flat tuning, EbAbDbGbBbeb) chords used: Em: 0-7-0-9-8-0-----------------------------------------------------| D: x-x-0-7-8-0-----------------------------------------------------| C: 8-7-0-9-8-x-----------------------------------------------------| G: x-x-17-16-15-15-------------------------------------------------| --------------------------------------------------------------------| Intro: helicopter and synth noise plays then guitar comes in:
