VERSE: These are the chords used, John mayer does different picking patterns; I'll write the most used one.

  A5sus4-you can slide into it    F7M/C    
e|----x----------------------| |--x------------------------|
B|----x----------------------| |--0------------------------|
G|----7----------------------| |--0------------------------|

A|----7----------------------| |--5------------------------|
E|--3/5----------------------| |--x------------------------|


Variation A

There is a slight delay between
the sliding base and the strum.                   On the last pick stroke also slap.

PRE-CHORUS: (the part where he goes  I want to live in the center of a circle)

He is alternating between A5sus5 and G. herese the way to play them:

   A5sus4         G
e    x            x
A    x            x
D    7            4
G    7            5
B    7            5
E    5            x



Chorus: (home life, been hoding out for a home life)

John continually strums this F5 chord puling of the B string to the open string.

E A D G B e
1 3 3 0 1 x
       p0


!! At the end of the chorus he strums the F5 chord twice and slides this shape 2 frets up and strums again. !!


Bridge:  
F5
I can tell you this much

II will marry just once
            C 
And if it doesn't work out

Give her half of my stuff
A 
It's fine with me
          Dsus2/B
We said eternity
F5
And I will go to my grave

With the life that I gave
               C
Not just some melody line

On a radio wave
      A
It dissipates
           Dsus2/B
And soon evaporates
           F5
But home life doesn't change
