Everyone hear obviously enjoys playing Dave, but who else do you cover? Personally, I have been playing a lot of David Grey, Dispatch, Beatles and Cat Stevens lately. The vast majority being acoustic solo.

Howie Day isn't near as hard to figure out as some of Mayer's songs. songs like 83, 3x5, No Such Thing, Neon, Great Indoors etc.... the chords are different a lot of the times and uses a capo for a few of them. anyway, it's good practice to figure out songs on your own but if you want a great site for Mayer tabs, look no further:

DMB, Caedmon's Call, Jars of Clay, James Taylor, Eric Clapton
Jars and Caedmon's are solid. Have you ever heard Bebo Norman? He has some very original stuff. I definately recommend checking him out.
