Wheel Words and Music by John Mayer Album: Heavier Things Transcribed by: Gabe Email: Supraslick15_14@juno.com AIM: JMFan70 This song is pretty easy to play, I have the actual way its played....and the simplified version that is basically the same thing. I saw him play it live and its really easy to play! Im not totally sure but I think he is using slight chorus and lowered tone. So all of you who have strat or strat style guitars move your 5-way switcher to the 2 position from the top and set the second tone knob from the top to 4 or 5. Key: h -Hammer On p -Pull Off x -Muted string ~ -Let ring T -Thumb / -Slide Up \ -Slide Down ># -5-Way Switcher Up (Towards bridge) this will be followed by a number, the number which how many clicks or settings you have to move(down or up). <# -5-Way Switcher Down (Towards Neck) Intro & Verses e-----------------10-------| b--13--10~----13-(10)-10---| g--12--12~----12------12---| d--10--10~----10------10---| a--------------------------| e--10--13~----10------13---| T T T T Easier version (Intro and Verses) e-----------------------10-----| b--13--10----(10)----13----10--| g--12--10(12)--------12----10--| d--10--10------------10----10--| a------------------------------| e--10----------------10--------| T T Part 2 e----------------------------| b--6---6----6---6------------| g--5h7-5----5h7-5---3-3-2-3--| d---------8-------8-5-5-3-5--| a----------------------------| e--6----------------3--------| (Their hearts say move along...)
