Lifelines - John Mayer Cover

[kenstyle1978]

Hey Man, great job. Any chance you can make a video with the main groove? He gets so many more mutes than i do.

[dizasterousn]

@hiero.. Playing for four years doesnt mean u can learn a song by ear, especially a song that doesn't use conventional chords.

[aidanmckay4]

Not an easy song to play, nice cover

[hcbgroep]

good work, good presentation, but why with not in a nice area

[Bucetinho]

CHORDS.

please!

[YungLoC707]

ive been tryin to get em to post the tabs for like 4 years now lol i still cant find the correct ones ANYwhere this guy is sittin on the best version ever lol at this point i would take the guitar MUSIC hes a fantastic musician though. =]

[Hiero3Q8]

@YungLoC707 you should've spent those 4 years to learn guitar and eventually play the song by ear instead of waiting for the tabs.

[StopThisTrain06]

thats really great dude..u hit every note just like the original..think u could post a link to the tabs?.?

[klughing]

I want to play this song so bad. Can you help me? Like maybe make a video tutorial or something? :)

[frankochoa87]

I second that request and tabs, are the tabs the same as the one in the mayer tab website? you rock BTW

[wiregate107]

you're a pro. very talented

[Jaskkes]

very nice cover of this song. its a favourite of mine.

[RoomForSquares14]

nice what tab did you use ?

[christineangelique]

guitar is good, it's just that, it have exagerated jm's head... keep it up...

[sander71113]

Heh that was nice of you to point that out. Am working on taking that out of my playing - that's what too many JM youtube videos does to one's head.

[christineangelique]

dont worry bout it...i know someone whos worse: kicking to the beat of the music, just like JM

[VicRoseMusic]

@sander71113 Bob your head all you want. You're definitely feeling it! Great Job!

[tefybelle19]

Wow you really did a Great job very nice voice and Guitar skills. I ve been trying to find Johns version of this though you know where I can find it ...no one has it on youtube.

[dani329]

can i ask for the tabs plzz? thx

[dani329]

5 stars !

[Frederick73]

Wow I'm seriously impressed dude ~ I've been working on figuring this tune out by ear for at least a year off and on now. I have slightly different fingerings, but you got it all there. very true to the original. A lot of people don't realize just how difficult this tune is to play. Very nice job - gold star dude.

[sander71113]

Thanks.

[mcmike1992]

DAMN MAN! You're awesome. I think that you're right up there with jack johnson, not quite to JM standards, but still amazing!

[sander71113]

Hehe... not quite~!

[sunray73]

That is one B-E-A-UTIFUL guitar man. Great sound... What Model is it? oh and ofcourse your playing and singing is just beyond awesome.

[sander71113]

It's an Ibanez acoustic, I'd rather have a JM Martin,am just stuck with it :P.

[Tichou1313]

Hey sander !!! WOW ! your version is pretty cool !!! I tried to find a tab but it's not the same than you ! Have you use a tab ? If you do can you tell me the adress ? It will be very nice !!

Anyway, really good job !

[sander71113]

It's a mix of tab and some minor improvising. Glad you liked it.

[pbauw]

This song is a bear to sing and play at the same time. :-\ Just like with "Neon", the thumb slap part gives me hell.

[jarleschnet]

one of the best hidden gems, not bad at all~

[capo3rdfret]

that is so killer

[pds0911]

what the....holy shit

your playing sooooooooooo hot

[Faure45]

oh wow! haha, i almost completely forgot about this song! well done brother, and thanks for refreshing my memory. do you by chance have an audio recording of john doing it?

[sander71113]

Just a bootleg audio recording of him playing it live.

[shawngiasson]

I'm in the process of learning this song now.....I really like the small improvisations....very nice...

[YungLoC707]

AWESOME VOcALs,TIMiNg, & pLayiNg.

[sander71113]

Thanks, this is really one hard ass song to pull-off, and I am still trying to improve it. It's one of them catchy and yet technical tunes, definitely crowd pleaser.

[inverness]

video is pretty slow, but nevertheless, you NAILED the song! this is by far my favourite JM song..can't seem to get him to play this song again..

[RossLower]

yeah its got the chords but not all that cool shit you do

[RossLower]

is this played a tone lower as well?

[sander71113]

Yes.

[RossLower]

hey mate,great playng qhat is the tab for teh bass notes at the beginning

[sander71113]

There is a tab available for this song somewhere around the net.

[jedi098765]

I envy you. Your thumb can reach A. Mine can only reach E. Maybe when i reach 18.... (sigh)

[jedi098765]

Love it man. Nice vocals.

[ebtgboi103]

you are awesome:) thank you soo much for this cover..wouldnt it be great if John did a acoustic album with this song and sucker??..great job!!:)

[funkmasterchill]

love that song. hard guitar parts in it.

[mschristina]

That was simply fantastic! =)

[sander71113]

Thanks, your covers were nice too, not to mention your cute ;)

[mschristina]

Aw! Thank you for watching them! You're very sweet!

[MizZoo]

That was great man, I really enjoyed that. Keep on playing. Very nice voice too

[thinkoftheirony]

That is some ridiculous sweetness there (seriously, thanks for covering this - finals week has been made notably more beautiful). As for the song, it was executed as flawlessly as one of Psycho Shredder's 7 second victories.
