Song: "If I Had Eyes (Acoustic)"
Artist: Jack Johnson
Tabbed by: Robb rlsjaws@gmail.com
This is the solo, acoustic version that Jack performed during his performance for BBC Radio.
He uses barre chords for basically the entire song and plays in a lower key than his
versions, but you can use standard chords and it'll sound fine.
