This is the sweet intro he plays, and here's the link to the performance: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yY4tBjIwDJ8 G Gmaj7 |-----------------3^----3---------|-----------3-----2/----7~~~------| |-----------0-----0^--------0-----|-----------------3/----8~~~------| |-------0---------0^------------0-|-------0---------0-----0---------| |-----0-----------0^--------------|---------0-----------------------| |-----------------x^--------------|---------------------------------| |-3-----------3---3^--------------|-3-------------------------------| Em7 Em9 |-----------------x^--------------|---------------------------------| |-----------8-----8^----8---------|-7-----7-----7/8---8---8-8-------| |-----------------7^--------7-----|-7-----7-----7-----------7-------| |-------5---------5^--------------|---------------------------------| |-----7-------7-------7-------7---|---------------------7-------0---| |-0-------------------------------|---------------------------------| Am7 Am9 |---------------5-----------5-----|-7^----7-----5-----------5-------| |---------5---------5-------------|-5^----5-----5---------5-5-5-----| |---------5-------------5-5-------|-5^----------------5---5-5-5-----| |-------5-5---------------5-------|-5^------------------5-----5-----| |---------x---------------x-------|-----------------------------0---| |-3/5-----5-------------------5---|---------------------------------| C6sus2 D(add9)/F# |------------10-------------------|-------------0-------------------| |-------8-----------8-------8-----|-------3-------------------------| |-------7---------------7-7---x-x-|---2---2-------------------------| |-------------------------7---x-x-|-----------0---------------------| |-------------------------x---x-x-|---------------------------------| |-5/8-----------------8-----------|-2-------------------------------| I have also typed this little bit into guitar pro, it's worth checking out: www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/j/jason_mraz/you_and_i_both_acoustic_intro_guitar_pro.htm *Finger Picking Lesson*: Here's a little lesson a had from Tacea Cosmin. I thought I might as well add it directly into the tab. Thanks a lot for that, Tacea! *********************************************************************************** fingerpicking pattern which i'm 99% sure is right: (example for first chord G, 320033) e -------3--*--------------3-------| B ----------*----3---3--3^--3------| G -----0^---*------0----0^---0-----| D -----0^---*----------------------| A -----2^---*----------------------| E --3-------*----------------------| The * represents the fact that there is a slight pause there between section. The rest of the notes are close together because they are in quick succession. Watch the youtube link to see this. To make it easier for it to be played (as I have seen it from Mr. Mraz himself), the bottom e- and B-string have to be picked with your middle finger, and for the G-string use your index finger. This is because, as you can see in the tab, you often alternate between picking the B- and G-string. When you have to pick the e-string (like in the first section of the tab) just use your middle finger, then for the next string to be picked, the B-string, use the same finger, bringing it up from the e- to the B string. Then pick G and B normally with the middle and index finger. As for the small downward strumming motion, use the nails of your index and middle finger. *********************************************************************************** Jon Sebastian Frederiksen - 19th /May /09 Just mail me at Maitinin@gmail.com with questions, comments and corrections!
