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,
