Mayer Hawthorne (real name Andrew Mayer Cohen) grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and vividly remembers, as a child, driving with his father and tuning the car radio in to the rich soul and jazz history the region provided. “Most of the best music ever made came out of Detroit,” claims the singer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist, who counts Isaac Hayes, Leroy Hutson, Mike Terry, and Barry White among his influences, but draws the most inspiration from the music of Smokey Robinson

Capo 1st fret So you can play it in the key of C with the guitar, move everything half-tone up if you don't want a capo.
Whenever you have C you can play C/G, if you want to follow a bit of the bass line. I'll upload the bass line for the song as well. When I use Dm . . each dot represents a beat, since the next chord appears on the 4th beat of the measure. Actually in the song it's not on the 4th beat, but if you're playing guitar and singing i think it will be easier.
Here we go.
