lol I see the advice was considered... It does work like a champ :P.

Wish I had a camera, it's one i can play really well. The tabs on jmtabs.com get all scrunched together and the timing structure gets all whacked out. Go to mxtabs.net and search for the song they have a good version of it by Catherine Gagne.

as long as you can get the first d with the hammer on and then a couple of picked notes the rest of the song dosen't even matter. once girls recognize the song they are euphoric. i played it once when i was drunk off my ass, played it for like, 30 seconds, ended up playing the music of times like these AND where are you going while singing comfortable(by the way, i was really really drunk-that's the only way it worked) and if i didn't pass out right after i would have gotten laid. morale of the story. if you can get it to somewhat passble, you'll get pussy.

Here ya go man , it's the intro and part of the verse to get ya started. If i had a bigger flash card in my piece of shit 2.0 meg pix cam i'd do more but i'll throw it together sometime.

Sorry for the quality like I said it's a piece.

this seems like one of those songs you can kind of just make your own if you follow the structure.

exactly. as long as you get the basic premise of it right, you can do awesome.

i play it a little bit more inline with the vocals. I just looked at the tab the other day and started playing around with the song. But thats one thing i've noticed about mayer, he plays his songs so damn sifferent sometimes, well, quite often actually.
So there isnt really a wrong way to play some of his songs.
