Flood Jars of Clay
Tabbed by Johnny Betancourt
Hey guys, I’ve seen so many bad versions of Flood out there that I finally
had to get down and chart it out myself. (Sorry about my negative attitude
all the time, I’m really not a very grumpy person!) But anyway, here you go.
As I’ve said before, Jars of Clay basically keeps their 3rd and 4th fingers
on the 3rd fret of the B and E strings for the whole first CD! (Okay, there
are a few exceptions) But when you know that it helps you figure out the
fingering for the chords. By the way, do me a favor and vote for this chart
so that I can get an overall look at what you guys think. I don’t want to
be “throwing my pearls before the swine”! Lol, sorry! I’m not calling you
guys pigs, it’s just a Biblical expression. E-mail me at Jnnybgd86@aol.com
for questions or comments.

Back to verse…
For the slow part, strum slowly through the chorus chords
