The chords to Jumpin' Jack Flash (as I hear it) are B, D, A, and E.
The opening riff (also, the middle section) is just B-E-D repeated (3 times
for the intro, 4 for in the middle) followed by B strummed a few times.
During the verses, the riff is the simple
|-----------------------------------|
|*---------------------------------*|
|-----8--8--------------------------|
|-----9--9--------7-----7-------7---|
|*----9--9----7-9---7-9-----7-9----*|
|-----7--7--------------------------|
The chorus is
B D A E
But it's al----right now,
B
in fact it's a gas....
B D A
But it's al----right
E B
Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas gas gas!
That's the chord progression. If anyone knows the counter-melody played
during the chorus, please post it.
