First tab! Chords are easy and sound great (and the lyrics are right as well)
Capo 4
Standard Tuning
[Intro]
Am F C x4
[Verse]
Am
It's not silly little moment
F C
It's not the storm before the calm
Am
This is the deep and dying breath of
F C
This love that we've been working on
Am
Can't seem to hold you like I want to
F C
So I can feel you in my arms
Am
Nobody's gonna come and save you
F C
We've pulled too many false alarms
[Chorus]
G
We're going down
Am F
And you can see it too
G
We're going down
Am F
And you know that we're doomed
Am F C
My dear we're slow dancing in a burning room
Am F C x2
[Verse]
Am
I was the one you always dreamed of
F C
You were the one I tried to draw
Am
How dare you say it's nothing to me
F C
Baby, you're the only light I ever saw
Am
I make the most of all the sadness
F C
You'll be a bitch because you can
Am
You try to hit me just to hurt me
So you leave me feeling dirty
F C
Cause you can't understand
[Chorus]
G
We're going down
Am F
And you can see it too
G
We're going down
Am F
And you know that we're doomed
Am F C
My dear we're slow dancing in a burning room
Am F C x2
Am F C
Go cry about it, why don't you? x3
Am F C
My dear we're slow dancing in a burning room
Am F C x4
Am
Don't you think we oughta know by now?
F C
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Those two lines repeat and the song fades out so do what you want with the ending!
Like I said, this is my first tab so it may be a little rough but it sounds great
to me and I hope this helps! John Mayer songs are typically difficult to play, so
I hope this helps you beginners out there! Thanks xoxo

For anyone looking to get this that little bit more accurate..
G
We're going down
Am *Dm7*
And you know that we're doomed
Normal Dm/Dm7 is ok but you could try XX0011 to get that 11 sound.
(Originally without a capo he goes down to a F#m11 chord (2X4200) for 'doomed' FYI)

I believe on the "Go cry about it why don't you" x3 it is G F C (instead of Am F C).
Otherwise, excellent - thanks heaps for sharing :-)
