	(Adult Pop/ Rock) John Mayer - Room For Squares - Musician Forums
		John enters again, like he remembered something: ”One more thing!” I find this part pretty funny, it’s one of the reasons I like this song.
		John has a short solo in here, and then the chorus comes in, he changes the last lyrics to “Your will is not as strong as it used to be.”, and then the song fades out with another melody.
		It proves that John Mayer is really talented, and not a Dave Matthews poser at all (most people seem to think like this, I disagree.).
