Title: Mary Jane
Band: The Vines
Album: Highly Evolved (2002)

tabbed by scef (email: funnell_teen_spirit@yahoo.com)


this actually took me longer to work out than I
thought it would...the chord progression doesn't
change throughout the song but it works soooo well...


intro (chorus effect or something, don't ask me...)
play twice. not sure if this is exaactly right but
sounds pretty good when played along with the song. by
the way it probably sounds like he hits the strings
more than I've tabbed below but I think that's just
the work of the effect he's using...play around with
it and see what works best
