Jimmy Eat World

Jimmy Eat World - Seventeen guitar tab

Artist: Jimmy Eat World

Title: Seventeen

Album: Static Prevails (1996)

Tuning: Dropped D Tuning

This is from their first album Static Prevails, lyrics were not sung by Jim Adkins official

lead singer now but by second guitarist Tom Linton.

Anyways it’s Dropped D Tuning just like most Jimmy Eat World songs, I’ve

tried arranging it for 2 guitars.

I have included a structure to help if you get stuck with the variations and all.

Hope it helps.
