I can't get the pre-chorus to sound right, could a kind soul please help me out and tell med exactly how you pick that part?

oh yeah and great tutorial!

[ludwig1300]

thank you and congrats!

[octopus7y]

you're a monster



[DottedCheese]

Are you a prodigy, good sir?

[neontrain]

this is obviously not john. if it were he would be playing the bass notes with his thumb

[Leozinnnnnnn]

@neontrain actually it is.. you can have john's tab in mayertabs,com , and if you see it he's saying it helps having GIANT thumbs, and as the guitarist here said he does not have, he tabbed it other way to make things easier ;)

[joshbrooksacoustic]

This is definetly one of john mayers best songs. and also really fun to play!this video really filled in what the other tutorials were missing!

[Pablosobrado1]

yeah!



[j3m1995]

Very nice bro!!! I wish i found this earlier lool! check out my channel when you can :)

[NateCMusic]

Excellent bro!!

Learned the song in two days with this!!!

I think next time though, you should use that green screen for something cool. I was thinking like a deadly battle royal with unicorns shooting rainbow laser beams from their horns.

Just a thought man.

[LarsensBiscuts]

amazing cover, and ya think its hard enough, then ya find out john mayer plays with his thumb and first finger only for picking!

[ubilockon]

Its john, look at his outfit, Same shirt from the live in la performance

[pochoclos08]

Show us ur face John...

[anderson5908]

come on we all know thats you john

[FreaquedeMusique]

I just cant seem to figure out the rythm hand of 2:53

can anybody please help me or send me to another video?!! plzplzplz

[pumukellll]

hey would it be possible to put the slaps (x) into the tab , because i dont know when to do them

[OoryanoO42]

What's he doing after the pre-chorus 1:16 - 1:18? I can't figure out those chords that lead into the chorus. He didn't write them in the tab either.

[OO7coolioOO7]

nope! just confirmed it! this guy is definitely not human! :)

[AdamcanbeAdam]

i love this, but i would love if he actually GAVE the step-by-step stuff. i am not that good of a student xP

[mayertabsdotcom]

@AdamcanbeAdam There are already plenty of tutorials out there that painstakingly assume one knows nothing about the guitar — those video can be 6 or 7 parts long and a real pain for people like myself who know where the B-string is.

My hope is that with a bit more diligence people will find my website (*mayertabs(dot)com*) more usable. The step-by-step is in the tab on my website. It's even note-by-note, and you don't ever have to rewind!

[AdamcanbeAdam]

@mayertabsdotcom the thing is that you seem to be one of the very few who actually know what they're doing. i've tried so many other people, but they seem to even struggle with it themselves xP

[flyingcanadian13]

@mayertabsdotcom it definitely is better this way, thanks a shit tone! :D

[OoryanoO42]

Pretty sure you're a beast.

[drewl1990]

I just jizzed in my pants

[mirukufy]

Oh my... There is no hope for me. :'(

[kuan39652587]

desperate to know how to play the solo part (2:48-3:01)

[clondan1]

im glad someone finally makes JM vids swithout any talking bullshit and a nice close up on them playing....but for fucks sake please please also have a slowdown...i couldnt follow this one at all

[iliev7]

man how can we learn this?? you are too fast ... can you make a lesson when you will make more slowly ???

[brenoeumesmo]

What is this tunning ?

[08lakers08]

damn dude.. ur good

[jportizjp]

my tumb doesnt do what I tell him to

[adamizkool7]

What kind of guitar is that?

[plummetdown]

omg thank you for modify this song for the people who don't got giant thumbs!!!

[GodOfValhalla]

I watch and read the both yours and John Mayer's tabs but I still can't get the right sound minus not tuning it to C. Feels like there are notes missing on the tabs.

[wordthatscool]

very nice, best rendition ive seen of a ridiculously hard-to-play song

[JFri4321]

Thanks for the tabs in the info box, saved me!

[darc1992]

I FREAKING LOVE THIS YOUTUBE CHANNEL! and your website! It's so accurate!

p.s. John uses his thumb in the flat string and let his other fingers free to do easier shapes for the chords. I'm pretty sure you already know it!

Again, excellent videos

[mayertabsdotcom]

@darc1992 Thanks for the kind words -- and yeah, my thumbs don't work like that though. Thought it might be interesting to post an alternate. Unfortunately there are quite a few John Mayer puritans...

Thanks again.

[kuan39652587]

2:53 the solo part too fast!!!!

cant learn~ haha

[JoaoAndre001]

where's the tattoo on that left arm John?

[zetitooliveira]

for me it's john mayer playing

[zetitooliveira]

Nice!

[luckyg1982]

that was awsome!i wish i could play like this.i'm making it a goal to learn this.who cares how long it takes.John Mayer is a beast!

[Yolin199232]

the thumb is so busy :D

[nietorm]

dude seriously wish all tutorials were like this, no 3 minute intros of them talking bullshit, and making up excuses why its not note for note

[mayertabsdotcom]

@nietorm Thanks for understanding why I started all of this.

[amor60643]

THAT WAS AWSOME

[GatoGuitarPlayer91]

correct chords but the technique is diffrente check out my video..

[Vinnie726]

from what I can see it looks like you're only using your thumb and index finger is this correct?

[wordthatscool]

@Vinnie726 my friend plays thumb and 1st finger on this piece, this guy almost makes it look like just thumb! not sure if that is the case, seems like there are too many notes for just thumb picking

[wordthatscool]

this is so hard to play!

[fertnoy]

thankss very much master!..

desde guatemala

[danielmusics]

i like it

[TuckerWHS]

that is just fuckin unfair, hahaha how long u been playing and how old are u damn

[senfastek]

excellent playing by the way.

[senfastek]

what tuning do you have on your guitar

[KlandestinoRec]

drop C

[zikahendrix]

@KlandestinoRec its not DROP C.....just drop the E to C because DROP C is a different thing

[KlandestinoRec]

@zikahendrix yeep

[mayertabsdotcom]

@zikahendrix good call... I fixed it on the site.
