(lyrics taken from http://www.themountaingoats.net/lyrics/subpop_lyr.html#jam)

Start by strumming just the bottom few strings, then open up the chords as the song progresses.

E                                B
'cause life is too short to make toast,

      E                            A
but i never tasted jam before that tastes like this.
    E                       B                               E
and life is too short to refrain from eating jam out of the jar.
