Yeah. It's basically four or five chords. The only hard part is Ben Harper's slide solo towards the end. I never understood how he uses the same strumming pattern for most of his songs and gets away with it! :lol:

flake is easy... but not the easiest song to play, the mutting can be tricky at first.. holes in heaven, now thats damn easy.
Its like... getting two birds stoned at once. (Ricky-trailor park boys).

Maybe the wrong question was asked as the topic to this thread. Maybe it should be: What is the hardest Jack Johnson song to play? Discuss.... :)

Hardest: Taylor & Inaudible Memories (intros)

Easiest: Flake, Bubble Toes, Rodeo Clowns, Holes To Heaven

I love Jack Johnson. Second favorite artist. So simple...yet...so good.

They always are breaking up. Although this one does look permanent, I wouldn't be surprised if they reunited. :roll:
