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!

Chrous
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/j/john-mayer/204927.html ]
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 and
e |------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:

B |------2----2---------2----3-----|
G |------2----2---------2----2-----|
D |------0----0---------2----2-----|
A |---------------------0----0-----|
E |--------------------------------|
