Here’s TAB of John Mayer’s version to Human Nature which he played
\nat Michael Jackson’s funeral. I began from GypsyFire’s work on his
\nintro and then added some of the soloing that Mayer does throughout.
\n(http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/johncmayer) He repeats many licks for emphasis,
\nwhich I don’t notate each time. I mostly put each new phrase “in order
\nof appearance.”
\nIf you can open two windows on a large enough computer monitor
\n(or maybe print the TAB out the old fashioned way and set it in front
\nof you) I recommend playing the video and watching both the video and
\nthe TAB. If a lick is stumping you, go back a line or two and play a
\nbunch of phrases in a row and I bet you’ll find it again quickly.<\/p>\n

“this is the beginning of mayers version today. its not exact i took some of his
\nstuff and added some of my own. use your thumb on the low E string i find it the
\neasiest to get those low notes and keep the chord. you can play along to this tab
\non my profile i uploaded the mp3 so you can practice…the rhythm is pretty free”<\/p>\n

(*The release FROM a bend is trademark Mayer and he’ll use something similar
\nat the ending to get what I call that teardrop tone.)<\/p>\n

By the way, that’s a good observation GypsyFire makes about the thumb on the
\nlow E. Mayer pretty much holds to traditional classical guitar style in finger
\npicking, where you use your thumb (P, from PIMA) for the bottom three strings.
\nAnd then your index, middle and ring fingers get one string each. But don’t
\ntry to fixate on that part too much. Play whatever comes natural and there’s
\na very good chance you’ll fall into something very close to what he’s already
\ndoing.<\/p>\n
