Van Halen - Jump

Originally in C, I play in A capo 2, and follow the chords very loosely

Intro, approximated for guitar

Aadd9AD/AD/AAadd9Aadd9AD/AD/AA/C#Esus4x4

Intro chords keep going throughout the verse

Vox around the 3 on “up”

I get Aup, and nothing gets me down D/A→ A/C#→ Esus4

You got it tAough, I’ve seen the toughest around D/A→ A/C#→ Esus4

And I kAnow, baby, just how you feel D/A→ A/C#→ Esus4

You’ve got to Aroll with the punches to get to what’s real D/A→ A/C#→ Esus4

Oh can’t you F#msee me standing here

I’ve got my back against the record machine D→ D/C#→ Bm7

I ain’t the Bm7worst that you’ve Dseen → D/C#→ Bm7

Oh, can’t you see what I Dmean? A/C#E

Ah oAh, hey you, who said that, baby, how you been D/A→ A/C#→ Esus4

You say you don’t kAnow, you won’t know, until you begin D/A→ A/C#→ Esus4

So can’t you F#msee me standing here

I’ve got my back against the record machine D→ D/C#→ Bm7

I ain’t the Bm7worst that you’ve Dseen → D/C#→ Bm7

Oh, can’t you see what I Dmean? A/C#E
