First tab! Chords are easy and sound great (and the lyrics are right as well)

Capo 4 
Standard Tuning 

[Intro] 

   x4 


[Verse]

            
It's not silly

     
 little moment

 
             
It's not the s

              
torm before th

   
e calm 
            
This is the de

ep and dying b

reath of 
              
This love that

             
 we've been wo

       
rking on 
              
Can't seem to 

            
hold you like 

I want to 
             
So I can feel 

          
you in my arms

 
          
Nobody's gonna

 come and save

 you 
              
We've pulled t

             
oo many false 

 
alarms 


[Chorus]

             
We're going do

wn 
              
And you can se

And you know t

Don't you thin

             
k we shoulda l

Those two lines repeat and the song fades out so do what you want with the ending! 
Like I said, this is my first tab so it may be a little rough but it sounds great 
to me and I hope this helps! John Mayer songs are typically difficult to play, so 
I hope this helps you beginners out there! Thanks xoxo
