This is Jack Johnson^Γs "Flake" live solo acoustic version
on KROQ's private concert. This is my first time transcribing
a song, so sorry if I didn^Γt include any lyrics. I am 100 %
percent sure the chords, progressions, and song structure
are all correct.

C (8th): 8 10 10 9 8 8

F (1st): 1 3 3 2 1 1
Legend:
