The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
"Everybody's Better"
Jackknife To a Swan
Tabbed for trumpet by Josh "Lemonosity" Smith.
----------------------------
A "-" before the note means it's flat.
A "+" before the note means it's sharp.
A "~" means to scoop into the note from below if you can, but
still use the same fingering.
The numbers represent octaves, starting from low F sharp as +f1.
If I screwed this up at all, email me at skatrumpet1@yahoo.com
and inform me of what is wrong, and I'll repost it. Thanks.
This one was harder than anything cause of the saxophone licks.
Tabbing songs can sure be a hassle!! :-)
I mean, geez.. I'm not a sax player.. LoL. Have fun!
