John Mayer - Walt Grace's Submarine Test, January 1967
Tabbed by Axel Haumann (asehauDLM)

*NOTE* 
You can play it in Standard tuning if you want, but John plays it tuned down half step.
I've just tabbed the basic chords that John uses, I did not tab it note for note.
But with these videos below it should be quite easy for you to get into the rhythm/picking pattern.
John plays the chorus differently every time with many variations, so I've just tabbed a basic idea of it.

But to help you here's the basic picking pattern which is used 
for all chords in the Pre-verse/Verse & Pre-Chorus.
