Hey! just wanna say two things...great tab first of all!
just one thing, in the first verse, that last chord that he slides to at the end of the following lines, its F minor, not A.
Otherwise awesome!! thanks buddy!
E C#m G#m
Just when I had you off my head
G D C#m Fm
Your voice comes thrashing wildly through my quiet bed
very good tab. as noted above the last note of the verse is Fm. good job
Good effort indeed. Just have some minor corrections. In the bridge try a Dsus2 instead of an A
Dsus2
We say goodbye
We say goodbye
We say goodbye
I think it sounds a bit better than a double A
Also at the end when Mayer sings
All we ever do is say goodbye
try a Bm instead of a B ("oh all...) one or two times which fits with his voice if you listen closely
Minor corrections, still a very adequate tab, well done!
