• Song:

    Something Like Olivia

  • Artist:

    John Mayer

  • Album:

    Born and Raised

In order to get a good sound, use barre chords for this song only. Note that not 
striking all the strings but only part of them, just as hammering on the G7, is 
the way JM plays it. However, just playing the regular chords and striking all the 
strings will sound great as well. And try to get a groovy strumming pattern - but 
that won't be hard by listening to the song.

Well, Olivia is taken
      G7
But a look like hers
C                     G7       C       G7       C
Can be found from time to time
       G7         C

       G7
But a look like hers
C                     G7       C       G7       C
Can be found from time to time

            D   
I'm thinkin' something like Olivia 
   C              G7       C         G7       C
Is what I need to find

             G7               C   
There's only one man in this world
         G7          C          G7      C     G7      C
Who gets to sleep with her by his side
             G7               C
There's only one man in this world
         G7          C          G7      C     G7      C
Who gets to sleep with her by his side

             D
I'm thinkin' something like Olivia

        G7             C
Now, I'm not trying to steal
     G7        C         G7      C     G7      C
No love away from no one man
        G7             C
No, I'm not trying to steal
     G7        C         G7      C     G7      C
No love away from no one man

   D                          
But if Olivia herself were at my door
C
I'd have to say
            G7      C     G7      C
I'd let her in

G7                   C
