Capo: 1 Tuning: E A D G B E
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jumpin’ Jack Flash – The Rolling Stones --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Written by: Jagger/Richards Originally a non-album single (1968) Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard The studio recording is somewhere in between Bb and B. Either the tuning was sharp/flat during recording or the tape speed was changed during mixdown. My reading here is for a single acoustic guitar accompaniment. It can be played without using the tabs at all; in this case play the voicings given in the [Chords] section. The riff and melody provided in the tabs may be a little tricky to play while singing, but with a little practice they sound good. Check out my short demo recording to hear what this tab sounds like: https://soundcloud.com/maguri/the-rolling-stones-jumpin-jack-flash-demo --------------------------------------------------------------------------- capo: 1st or 2nd fret play: A key: Bb or B --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Main riff]
