These are tabs to the acoustic version of "Assassin" John Mayer performed in
a seminar at Berklee College of Music. I've added the lyrics from the album version for reference.

VERSE:
Csus2/E
I work in the dead of night
When the rCsus2oads are quiet
Em(add9)
No one is around
D (add9)
To track my moves
Csus2/E
Racing the yellow lights
To find the Csus2gate is open
Em(add9)
Shes waiting in the room
i just stepD(add9) on through.
PRE-CHORUS:
Csus/E Em(add9) D(add9)
O whoa whoa whoa whoa... O whoa whoa whoa whoa
Csus/E Em(add9) D(add9) Csus/E
You get in, You get done, and then you get gone
Em(add9) D(add9) Csus/E
You never leave a trace or show your face you get gone
Em(add9) D(add9) C(add9)
You should have turned around and left before the sun came up again
But the sun D(add9)came up again
CHORUS:
Em(add9) Csus2/E Csus2 F9/C7b9
I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
Em(add9) Csus2/E Csus2 F9/C7b9
I'd steel your heart before you ever heard a thing
Em(add9) Csus2/E Csus2 F9/C7b9
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Em(add9) Csus2/E Csus2 F9 C F9/C7b9
Little did I know that girl was an assassin too...
