Edge of Desire - John Mayer
Album: Battle Studies
OK guys this is my version of how i think John plays it.
I think its pretty close, if anyone has any suggestions, please leave a comment.
Im not entirely sure about the very last part of the Intro/Verse, but i think its virtually there.
This is an amazing song,listen the song to get the timing of the picking right,
its pretty straight forward! Good Luck!

Whole thing repeats.
Chrous
There is a picking pattern in the Chorus but i havnt figured it out yet,
it's a bit hard to hear, its just these chords played interchangeably.
I just strum them, sounds ok to me:
"Dont say a word.." "..with me"
Dmaj7 then A/Asus
0r ande |------0----2---------0-----0-----|B |------2----2---------2-----3-----|G |------2----2---------2-----2-----|D |------0----0---------2-----2-----|A |---------------------0-----0-----|E |---------------------------------|
Bridge thing after Second Chorus:
A F#m D A
A F#m D E
F#m D A A
This Riff is played throughout:
Riff 1
e |------------------------|B |2-3-5-3-2---2-3-5-3-2---|G |----------2-----------2-|D |------------------------|A |------------------------|E |------------------------|
Back to Chorus:
Dmaj7 then A/Asus
0r 0re |------2----0---------0----0-----|B |------2----2---------2----3-----|G |------2----2---------2----2-----|D |------0----0---------2----2-----|A |---------------------0----0-----|E |--------------------------------|
Riff 1 is played throughout this last chorus and through to the end of the song
along with this Riff also:
Riff 2
e |4-5-4-0---0-4-5-4-0---0-|B |--------0-----------0---|G |------------------------|D |------------------------|A |------------------------|E |------------------------|
