Best cover of this song on Youtube. :) but you made a small mistake in the pre-chorus part with the chords. In the part "so come on and face it", there are some chords small variation of chords missing :)
I hate you for how good your cover is... but I do thank you for having your fretboard completely visible so I can see if I'm doing things right; which I am! Hah but in all seriousness great job! Keep it up.
what is the strumming pattern that you are using in the beginning for the main part? I have got everything else down but I can't get the strum pattern sounding exactly right.
Just the strumming pattern on the intro. it seems like a couple of strums on the top few strings followed by a full strum of all strings but wanted to see what you do because your version sounds pretty smooth
ok, first off, i primarily use my middle and ring fingers on the down strum, and the side of my thumb for the up strum (very subtle) for this part, and i don't really keep track of which strings i'm playing on. after the end of each chord change, i first do an up strum, quickly followed by a soft slap/mute with my thenar (had to google to find this out this part of the hand), followed by an up strum, then 2 down strums. Rinse and repeat.
Very nice cover once again :) Sometimes I wonder if at that time JM didnt intentionaly played his songs the hardest way possible to annoy musician rookie like us doing covers, those chorus chords are so painy in that song :D Anyway, very good so far !
fantastic! if i was wearing a hat i'd take it off to you. The best cover of that song i've heard. Great vocals and nice work on those chords. Keep it up.
Nice job!! Love your John Mayer covers :)

great job, could you hook me up with tab for the chorus it's the only thing that doesn't match the tab i'm looking at.

great job bro. i noticed you strummed really far from the pick guard, i'm afraid that you might damage your guitar with scratches from your pick

I actually didn't use a pick for this song. But i did change my strumming position recently.

Can anybody do a close up of the chorus "you can cross the line whenever you want..." I cannot figure it out even with the tab and the video....
Plus i cant seem to get the same rythym as this guy.. 5 stars though for the rendition

This video was so helpful while I was learning this song. Was able to pick it up in an hour or so thanks to you. 5 stars.

Hey, how are you doing the chorus? It doesn't look like the tablature you provided. Yours looks easier too. Please let me know.

He's playing exactly like it's in the tab. I'm sure of that.

hi, i'm not sure which part you mean. let me know either the begin/end time, or lyrics, and i'll try and explain it.

it's very similar to the strum of "my stupid mouth" by John Mayer....if that helps
