Xo Chords

   
John Mayer's cover of Beyonce's 'Xo'.
Played on his tour in Australia, apparently the first time he's performed it.
Only had a few versions to listen to, and this may be a bit rough but its around 
the mark.

***CAPO 2***

| C Am F | are the chords used in Beyonce's version, 
however it seems John plays it slightly differently (in verse) in his cover:

   C             Cadd9 (not sure*)            F                   Am

e |--0--|            |--3--|               |--3--|              |--0--| 
b |--1--|            |--1--|               |--1--|              |--1--| 
g |--0--|            |--0--|               |--2--|              |--2--|

[Verse 1]
               C
Your love is bright as ever
     Cadd9
Even in the shadows
    F
Baby kiss me
                             C
Before they turn the lights out
       C
Your heart is glowing
        Cadd9
And I'm crashing into you
    F
Baby kiss me
                             C
Before they turn the lights out
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/john_mayer/xo_crd.html ]
Before they turn the lights out

Baby love me lights out

[Pre-Chorus]
C
In the darkest night hour
Am
I'll search through the crowd
             F
your face is all that I see
G
I'll give you everything
                       C
Baby love me lights out

Baby love me lights out

You can turn my light down

[Verse 2]
We don't have forever
Baby daylight's wasting
You better kiss me
Before our time is run out
Nobody sees what we see
They're just hopelessly gazing
Baby take me (take me)
Before they turn the lights out
Before time is run out
Baby love me lights out

[Pre-Chorus]
In the darkest night hour
Search through the crowd
Your face is all that I see
I'll give you everything
Baby love me lights out
Baby love me lights out

[Chorus]
C
I love it like XO
C
You love me like XO
Am
You kill me girl XO
Am
You love me like XO
F
All that I see
       G
Give me everything
                  C
Baby love me lights out
Baby love me lights out

*Harmonica solo*
Continue same chord progression

[Pre-Chorus]
In the darkest night I'll
Search through the crowd
Your face is all that I see
I'll give you everything
Baby love me lights out
Baby love me lights out
You can turn my lights out
