  DROPPED D TUNING (low E string tuning down one whole step)

  CAPO AT 3rd FRET (tab is NOT relevant to capo position - a "3" in the
tab is played open)

 

Artist Name: John Mayer

Tab Name: Your Body Is A Wonderland

 

The song is played in 8th position, not 3rd position, as I've seen some
interpret.
I have also figured out exactly how John puts those little tricky fills
in his opening lick,
as well as the interlude, which no other version seems to have figured
out.


 Intro

 

 e--|---------------------------------------5---3h5-----------

 B--|---------------------------------------6---6-------------

 G--|-10--T--10----10--T--10---10--T--10----5---5-------------

 D--|-10--A--10----10--A--10---10--A--10----------------------

 A-8|-----P------------P-----------P------3---3-----/8--------

 d--|-----------10-----------8--------------------------------

 

(Obviously repeat a few times, but replace the first note in the song,
the F at fret 8 on the A string, with the slide up to the F note as
indicated at the end of the above tab.)  Feel free to fool around with
the fill at the end, John plays it a little different each time.

 

Verse follows same pattern, but does not drop down to third position for
the fills.

 

 

     We got the afternoon . . .

 Chorus

 

 (Chorus is same as verse, but sometimes he throws in a note at the 10th
fret on the

 second string to make the notes at that fret a triad.)
