          Jumpin’ Jack Flash – The Rolling Stones
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Written by: Jagger/Richards
Originally a non-album single (1968)
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
The studio recording is somewhere in between Bb and B. Either the tuning 
was sharp/flat during recording or the tape speed was changed during
mixdown.
My reading here is for a single acoustic guitar accompaniment. It can be
played without using the tabs at all; in this case play the voicings given
in the [Chords] section. The riff and melody provided in the tabs may be 
a little tricky to play while singing, but with a little practice 
they sound good.
