These are the chords for John Mayer's cover of Beyonce's XO that he played in Adelaide, South Australia
on the 15th of April 2014. I was there and it was amazing. 

Here is a link to a YouTube video of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVH6OkUT7Dc

I worked this out from my recording of it and the YouTube video

Tuning: Standard, Capo 2nd

These are the chords used, pretty much just mix it up by hammering on the B string from open to 1st throughout.

I'm not sure about the proper name for the chords but they are all relative to the Capo

    C              G            Am  (or C6?) 
e|--3---|      e|--3--|     e|---3--|

The timing of the chords might be slightly off but it's so easy you should be able to work it out 
pretty quickly!
