Not Myself- John Mayer
Tabbed by Robin Young
The tricky thing about this song is that the chords aren’t played directly on the beat,
it was hard to write them in the right place. Listen to the song & figure it out, you’ll
on quickly.

Verse 1
Suppose I said
I am on my best behavior
And there are times
I lose my worried mind
Chorus
Would you want me when I’m not myself?
Wait it out while I am someone else?
Verse 2
Suppose I said
Colors change for no good reason
And words will go
From poetry to prose
Chorus
Bridge
And I
In time
Will come a-round
I al- ways do
For you
Ah
Ah, ah

Verse 3 (my favorite part!)
Suppose I said
You’re my saving grace?
Chorus (fade out)
