Comfortable
by John Mayer

I just remembered, that time at the market
Snuck up behind me and jumped on my shopping cart
And rode down, isle 5
You looked behind you to smile back at me
Crashed into a rack full of magazines
They asked us, if we could leave.

Can't remember, what went wrong last September
though I'm sure you'd
remind me, if you had to

Our love was,
Comfortable
and
So broken in...


I sleep with this new girl I'm still getting used to
My friends all approve,
Sayin' "Shes gonna be good for you"
They throw me, high fives
She says the bible is all that she reads
And prefers that I not use profanity
Your mouth was,
So dirty

Life of the party
And she swears that she's artsy
But you could distinguish
Miles from Coltrane


Our love was,
Comfortable
and
So broken in
She's perfect,
so flawless
Or so they say, say

She thinks I can't see the smile that she's faking
And poses for pictures that aren't being taken
I loved you
Grey sweat pants,
No makeup,
So perfect!!!

Our love was,
Comfortable
and
So broken in
She's perfect,
so flawless


I'm not impressed,
I want you back.

John Mayer - No Such Thing
No Such Thing
by John Mayer


"Welcome to the real world!"
She said to me kind of condescendingly
"Take a seat, take your life
Plot it out in black and white"

Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings
And the drama queens
I’d like to think the best of me
Is still hiding up my sleeve

They love to tell you...
...stay inside the lines
But something’s better...
...on the other side


I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
"I JUST FOUND OUT THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS THE REAL WORLD...
...JUST A LIE YOU GOTTA RISE ABOVE!"


So the good boys and girls
take the so-called right track
Faded white hats grabbing the credits and
making transfers
They read all the books
but they can’t find the answers
And all of our parents, they’re getting older
I wonder if they’ve wished for anything better
While in their memories
Tiny tragedies

They love to tell you...
...stay inside the lines
But something’s better...
...on the other side


I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
"I JUST FOUND OUT THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS THE REAL WORLD...
...JUST A LIE YOU GOTTA RISE ABOVE!"


I am invincible
I am invincible
I am invincible
As long as I’m alive

I wanna run through the halls of my high school
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
"I JUST FOUND OUT THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS THE REAL WORLD...
...JUST A LIE YOU GOTTA RISE ABOVE!"


I just can’t wait till my 10 year reunion
I’m gonna bust down the double doors
And when I stand on these tables before you
You will know what all this time was for...

John Mayer - Why Georgia
Why Georgia?
by John Mayer


I am driving up 85 in the
Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
I’m just stuck inside the gloom

Four more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
And leave it all behind

Cause I wonder sometimes
About the outcome
Of a still verdictless life

Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why? Why Georgia, why?


I rent a room and I fill the spaces with
Wood in places to make it feel like home
But all I feel’s alone

It might be a quarter-life crisis
Or just the stirring in my soul
Either way

I wonder sometimes
About the outcome
Of a still verdictless life


Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why? Why Georgia, why?


So what?
So I’ve got a smile on...
It’s hiding the quiet superstitions in my head


Don’t believe me
Don’t believe me
When I say I’ve got it down


Everybody is just a stranger
But that’s the danger in going my own way
I guess it’s a price I have to pay

Still everything happens for a reason
Is no reason not to ask myself...


Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why? Why Georgia, why?

John Mayer - My Stupid Mouth
My Stupid Mouth
by John Mayer


My stupid mouth
Has got me in trouble
I said too much again
To a date over dinner yesterday
And I could see
She was offended
She said "well anyway..."
Just dying for a subject change

Oh, another social casualty
Score one more for me
How could I forget?
Mama said "think before speaking"
No filter in my head
Oh, what's a boy to do
I guess he better find one soon

We bit our lips
She looked out the window
Rolling tiny balls of napkin paper
I played a quick game of chess with the
Salt and pepper shaker
And I could see clearly
An indelible line was drawn
Between what was good, what just
slipped out and what went wrong

Oh, the way she feels
about me has changed
Thanks for playing, try again.
How could I forget?
Mama said "think before speaking"
No filter in my head
Oh, what's a boy to do
I guess he better find one


I'm never speaking up again
It only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery
Than she deserted me


Oh I'm never speaking up again



Starting now...



Starting now...

One more thing...
Why is it my fault?
So maybe I try too hard
But it's all because of this desire
I just wanna be liked,
I just wanna be funny
Looks like the jokes on me
So Call me "Captain Backfire"


I'm never speaking up again

It only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery
Than she deserting me


Oh I'm never speaking up again

Starting now...

John Mayer - Your Body is a Wonderland
Your Body is a Wonderland
by John Mayer


We got the afternoon
You got this room for two
One thing I've left to do
Discover me
Discovering you

One mile to every inch of
Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips and
Your bubblegum tongue

And if you want love
We'll make it
Swimming a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while...


Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland
(I'll use my hands)
Your body is a wonderland


Something 'bout the way your hair
falls in your face
I love the shape you take when crawling
towards the pillowcase

You tell me where to go and
Though I might leave to find it
I'll never let your head hit the bed
Without my hand behind it

You want love?
We'll make it
Swimming a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while...


Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland
(I'll use my hands)
Your body is a wonderland


(...I’m never speaking up again. I'll use my hands...)

Damn baby
You frustrate me
I know you're mine all mine all mine
But you look so good it hurts sometimes

Neon
by John Mayer

When sky blue gets dark enough
To see the colors of the city lights
A trail of ruby red and diamond white
Hits her like a sunrise

She comes and goes and comes and goes
Like no one can...


Tonight she's out to lose herself
And find a high on Peachtree Street
From mixed drinks to techno beats it's always
Heavy into everything

She comes and goes and comes and goes
Like no one can...
She comes and goes and no one knows
She's slipping through my hands...


...She's always buzzing just like:

Neon, neon
Neon, neon

Who knows how long, how long, how long
She can go before she burns away

I can't be her angel now
You know it's not my place to hold her down
And it's hard for me to take a stand
When I would take her anyway I can

She comes and goes and comes and goes
Like no one can
She comes and goes and no one knows
She's slipping through my hands...


...She's always buzzing just like:

Neon, neon
Neon, neon
Who knows how long, how long, how long
She can go before she burns away

John Mayer - City Love
City Love
by John Mayer


I never liked this apple much
It always seemed too big to touch
I can't remember how I found
My way before she came around

I tell everyone
I smile just because
I've got a city love
I found it in Lydia Dania
And I can't remember
life before her name

She keeps a toothbrush at my place
As if I had the extra space
She steals my clothes to wear to work
I know her hairs are on my shirts

I tell everyone
I smile just because
I've got a city love
I found it in Lydia Dania
And I can't remember life before...


The day
She called up and came to me
Covered in rain
And dinnertime shadowing
And as her clothes spun, we spooned
And I knew I was through
When I said "I love you"

Friday evening, we've been drinking
2 AM, I swear I might propose
but we close the tab
split a cab
and call each other up when we get home
falling asleep to the sound of sirens

I've got a city love
I found it in Lydia Dania


From the battery
To the gallery
It's the kind of thing you only see
In scented, glossy magazines


And I can't remember
life before her name
