If you want to learn one of Jake's songs, I would suggest Blue Roses Falling.
It is actually a lot easier than you may think. But that doesn't mean you will sound like Jake. But even a noob version will sound pretty good.
Go onto youtube and watch different covers of the song that show what notes are being played. Also there is a great video of Jake playing it on a dock that gives some good fretboard views.
It starts off with a G chord. Learn a little at a time and take notes.
I hope this makes up for melting your brain the other day.
