SONG: Million
ARTIST: Jawbreaker
ALBUM: Dear You

Tabbed by Farraj Hussaini

STANDARD tuning




INTRO:

You could just E maj for the first chord for a fuller sound,
that's what I prefer, at least, but this is what Blake does
in the live taping I've seen (I wish I went to a Jawbreaker concert).

There ya go. You kinda start to hate the album because of how repetitious
the chords are, but damn if it ain't a catchy emo bawwwfest. Great album,
nonetheless. I'm looking at you, Pitchfork.
