Who Did You Think I Was by John Mayer
Who Did You Think I Was
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:Am
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
Am7
I got half a smile and zero shame,
I got a reflection with a different name.
F7 G7
Got a brand new blues that I can't explain.
Am7
Who did you think I was?
[Verse 2]
Am7
Every morning when the day begins
I'm makin' my mind but change it back again.
F7 G7
I am a shifter of the shape I'm in.
Am7
Who did you think I was?
[Chorus]
F7 E7
You've got my number but I always new the score.
Am7
Who did you think I was?
[Verse 3]
Am7
Am I the one who plays the quiet songs?
Is he the one who turns the ladies on?
F7 G7
Will I keep shinein' 'till my light is gone?
Am7
Who did you think I was?
[Chorus]
F7 E7
You've got my number but I always new the score.
Am7
Who did you think I was?
[Instrumental]

F7 G7
Am7
[Bridge]
F7 G7
Here is a line that you won't understand,
F7 G7
I'm half of a boy but I'm twice the man,
F7 G7
Carry the weight of the world in the palm of my hand.
Am7
Who did you think I was?
Who did you think I was?

But on 2nd time, end with the G on the D string (5th fret) instead of the A (7th Fret)
I got half a smile and zero shame
I got a reflection with a different name
Got a brand new blues I can't explain
Who did you think I was
Every mornin when the day begins
I make up my mind but change it back again
I'm a shifter of the shape I'm in
Who did you think I was
You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was
Am I the one who plays the quiet songs

Got a brand new blues I can't explain

I got half a smile and zero shame
I got a reflection with a different name
Got a brand new blues I can't explain
Who did you think I was
Every mornin when the day begins
I make up my mind but change it back again
I'm a shifter of the shape I'm in
Who did you think I was
You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was
Am I the one who plays the quiet songs
Is He the one who turns the ladies on
Will I keep shinin til my light is gone
Who did you think I was
You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was
Here is a line that you won't understand
I'm half of the boy but twice the man
Carry the weight of the world in the palm of my hand
Who did you think I was
Who did you think I was

(Note that when you're playing this don't pick the strings individualy, strum all the
strings but mute the ones that you aren't playing on the neck
