_________________________________ / Jason Mraz / / No Stopping Us / / Waiting for My Rocket to Come / /________________________________/ Chords: The main groove is the one switching between Abmaj7 and Dbmaj9, but since there really aren't any good-sounding ways of playing a Dbmaj9 on just guitar, I've thrown in some different voicings to spice up an acoustic version. Notice that Jason plays with a capo on the 1st fret live. It's actually not for any use chord-wise - it's simply just sounds less horrible if you accidentally strike open strings with the capo on :) Abmaj7 C#maj9 Cm7 Bm7 Bbm7 Db11sus Bmaj7 C#maj7 Cmaj7 Eb e:---3-------8---4--11--11-- --8----7----6-------4---- ---6-----8-----7--------: B:---4-------9---4---9---9-- --8----7----6-------7---- ---7-----9-----8----8---: G:---5------10---5---8--10-- --8----7----6-------4---- ---8----10-----9----8---: D:---5------10---6---8--10-- --8----7----6-------6---- ---8----10-----9----8---: A:---x-------x---4---x---x-- --x----x----x-------4---- ---x-----x-----x----6---: E:---4-------9-------9---9-- --8----7----6------------ ---7-----9-----8--------: Intro (verse): | Abmaj7 | C#maj9 | Abmaj7 | C#maj9 | [break] | Abmaj7 | C#maj9 | Abmaj7 | C#maj9 | Verse Chorus: | Cm7 Bm7 | Bbm7 | Cm7 Bm7 | Bbm7 | | Cm7 Bm7 | Bbm7 | Db11sus | Db11sus | Interlude (verse) Verse Chorus Interlude (verse) Bridge: [break timing:] 3 3&+& 4+ | Bmaj7 | Bmaj7 | C#maj7 | C#maj7 C#maj7 Cmaj7 Bmaj7 | | Bmaj7 | Bmaj7 | C#maj7 | Eb | Keyboard Solo (verse) Chorus Outro (verse), end on Dbmaj9 Would it take a baker's dozen to get my point to you?

Now to the other side It's easy of you only try We don't lie down on the job Because once we hit the top there's no stopping us Ain't no stopping us Should I address all my letters to the well to be? Should I say return to sender is just a well be done? Should I better not take it so personally if all the good loving is never received? Baby, if it was me, well I wouldn't think twice No, not I It's easy if you only try We don't lie down on the job or worse Because once we hit the top there's no stopping us There's no stopping us I will drive a thousand miles or I'll meet you at the station If only you would take a vacation from this thing you have created I promise to make it worth your while You know that I'll try So c'mon try, baby won't you try It's easy if you do not run I promise you you'll have your fun Because once we hit the top we've just begun There's no stopping us - 1st /February /09 Just mail me at Maitinin@gmail.com with questions, comments and corrections!
