Tis chord is made by holding the thick E (6th string), D (4th string) and G (3rd string), on the 6th fret, while other strings are palm muted.
It sounds smth like Bbm7.
Takes some practice but it's cool to play with it - the chords can be played on any fret. And Mr A-Z likes the chords - look at him doing Butterfly :)
I don't know why this guy isn't more popular. He's an awesome singer and songwriter, and unlike most artists these days, he's a FANTASTIC live performer!
Hey, if you like singing Jason Mraz songs, I recently checked an online karaoke where you can for free : it's SINGCHANA. It's awesome, your voice is compared to the original and you get a score for your performance, you can also challenge other users. Should try it !!
His voice is smooth like caramel, and he's a frickin' good player for someone who's only played since he was 18, but God, his lyrics. He is possibly the best lyricist/writer of our generation. Not just the poetry, but the staccatos, rhythm, timing, and general wordplay is nothing short of unique and astounding. His musicality blows me away. Pains me that people only know him for I'm Yours.
@Archigearour i prefer to watch his live shows his improv of the songs are awesome, he never plase the same song the same way in any video ive seen live his awesome
I want to hire I big ass black guy with a djembe, that dresses like the unabomber to follow me around and make my music sound 10x funkier like Jason Mraz does____

What doe the word GEEK stand for? Geek in a pink - what is it about? Great performance, really greatbut i wish i could derstand 100% of his lyrics :-( Please advise
Its that he's the geek, and the pink is a woman's...yes that! Review the lyrics and you'll see. Example when he say "toys out of the draw", "tight spot", "geek in your pink", etc...
i would like to know if jason uses effects on his guitar on this video.. because i like the sound of the treble of his guitar..if you tap his guitar it sounds good...
Havent gotten this song outta my head for two weeks now since I've gotten up here at college. Just wish I was coordinated enough to play and sing this at the same time. Oh well it'll be on my karaoke contest list tonight!!
Please keep up the music Jason and tour in south east PA sometime (NOT PHILLY!). Maybe MusikFest in Bethlehem next year??
My sister and I know this whole song, and she's only seven.
But anyway! I love Jason Mraz. One of the things I like is his live performances. He never lip sings, and that really touched me. Plus, he has such a pure, angelic voice, wonderful humor and witty charm, and such a beautiful soul. He is a good person with a carefree, outgoing disposition. PLUS! HE IS ADORABLE. I love him and his music so much. Love ya babe.
This is what music is about, feeling, live-ownage, the audience is sooooo quiet, which u probably didn't notice, cuz you where sucked up by his insane music vibe. Groeten uit holland!!
the studio recording of this song is a bit too 'pop' to my liking. this live acoustic version is a lot more boppy and funky without the cheese - a lot more 'real' if you get what i mean. i very much prefer listening/watching him with just him and his guitar, it's such an organic experience.
really sorry, but these things freak me out sooo much! dnt read this(cuz it really wrks). u will gt kissd on the nearest frieday by the love of ur life. 2mara wll b the bst day of ur life hwever if you dnt post ths comment 2 at least 3 vids u will die withn 2 days nw uv startd readn this dnt stp this is so scary snd ths ovr 2 5 vids in 143 mins when ur done press f6 nd ur crush's name wll appear on the screen n big letters ths is so scary cuz it actully wrks ths really wrks
