John Mayer - Last Train Home (Ballad Version - Official Video) 

No matter what happens, ultimately everything ends with minor pentatonic shredding 😅

I knew this record was going to be special when John grew out his hair like he did for Continuum and Born & Raised. Months into it, we're still getting releases. Sob Rock is the gift that keeps on giving.

This song should never be performed any other way. This is THE version.

This is exactly how music should make you feel.

Is it just me or does he just keep getting better and better? I used to be like “I wish he’d do more albums like Continuum”…but now I’ve realized JM gonna follow his own vision and man am I glad he has because he’s a one of a kind talent.

I like how happy John is when he's playing a solo 🤣

I feel this version in a part of my heart that I thought was dead.

I'm 68 years old and thought I have heard it all. But this one really touched me in ways that no other has before. What an incredibly beautiful song, and the blues riff is one of the finest.

Any version of a John Mayer song that has an extended guitar solo section is a version I'm excited to hear 🤩

No one can cover John Mayer's songs better than John Mayer himself.

Dear John, lots of guitar players here in comments, some passing by, some pay respects, but all of us spectating progression of your illustrious career and admiring your imagination to experiment with new styles but always keeping the essence intact. Good old blues lives in modern day music, reaching the next generation, all thanks to you. Long live to you, your family and dog.

This song makes me want to go home to my wife and dance with her, but I can't dance and I'm not married.

The older he gets the more soulful he gets. Constantly improving....respect.

Best musician of our generation, that guitar solo was breathtaking!

Almost spit my drink out at 03:58. One of the most unique licks I’ve ever heard come out of him.

Man he was in the zone during that solo, quite a talent John Mayer playing the guitar.

Feels like he made this version just to jam out during the closing solo

Easily the best musician, most soulful blues player, and best songwriter of his generation

This version makes the lyrics hit in a different way. Absolutely gorgeous. A masterful performance.

One year later, and there's been not a single day I didn't listen to this phenomenal song !

this version is masterful. that solo easily makes this one better than the original in my opinion!

Just when this man already saves 2021, he decides to save 2022 with this song.

This is my all time fave John Mayer song. The passion he has playing it's just so beautiful. Takes you deep and far away as music should. Just soulful❤

This man. Those feelings. That music. My God...

That ending solo is what makes a John Mayer concert legendary. I swear he sounds better live instead of any album. 🔥

Sob Rock is my most revisited album this year. I've played it during a hard days work, long hours on the road travelling to site, late nights and early morning, ive played it in the bedroom, I've played it for my parents, friends and co workers. The production is like a warm blanket and wild blue gets me everytime.

when John Mayer nails the vibe, it's sweet perfection. man is a national treasure.

I love the image of everyone warming up in the studio and getting ready. John just walks up, says nothing, straps on his pink PRS and lays down this track in one take like a boss.

It's Mayer's diversity for me. Instead of listening to 4 different artists from 4 different genres, I can listen to John mayer on shuffle and get every genre I enjoy. I haven't REALLY listened to anyone else for 2 years now.

His smile at the end shows that he genuinely enjoyed the jam and the man clearly wants more. What a musician

I’m 60 and have watched John Mayer progress throughout his musical career, his playing has evolved very nicely. Great songwriter and a great blues style guitar player 👍✌️

You could just feel his soul through that solo... he killed this. what an amazing talent!!

Can we all stop for a minute and actually appreciate how Johnny stepped up his voice game?

You know it’s a brilliantly written song when the lyrics hit harder the slower the song is. God bless you John Mayer, this version sent me places ✌🏼♥️

Mr. Mayer, well done, thou good and faithful servant.

just when i think i can't love this man enough. just when i think i've heard i needed to hear from him. just when i think he's reached the peak of his talent............he drops this.

Fantastic band & incredible performance! And John, you sing, play guitar so sweet!! So happy to hear this!!

John will go down in history as one of greatest guitarists And composers In history.

The slow down is so beautiful

John Mayer is one of the BEST GUITAR PLAYERS EVER!!!! This is by far the best song he's ever sung!!! Best Love song ever, luv him!!!❤️☮️❤️😀

This song understands you've had a long stressful day. It knows what you're going through. It's here for you. Take it in. Breathe it in. Let go.

This is what it looks like when a person does what they were meant to do.

This hauntingly beautiful ballad by uber-talented John Mayer transports me to another place. I've had it on repeat all morning. 🥰

If you wanna roll me Then you gotta roll me all night long And if you wanna use me Then you gotta use me 'til I'm gone I'm not a fallen angel, I just fell behind I'm out of luck and I'm out of time If you don't wanna love me, let me go I'm runnin' for the last train I'm runnin' for the last train home If you wanna know me Then you gotta know me through and through And if you're gonna hurt me Then you gotta hold me next to you No matter how you work it, things go wrong I put my heart where it don't belong So if you're comin' with me, let me know Maybe you're the last train Maybe you're the last train home I'm on the last train runnin' I'm on the last train runnin' And I surrender And I surrender I'm on the last train runnin' I'm on the last train runnin' And I surrender And I surrender I'm on the last train runnin' I'm on the last train runnin' And I surrender And I surrender I'm on the last train runnin' I'm on the last train runnin' And I surrender And I surrender (Oh, yeah) (Ooh)

I can’t remember the last time a modern song felt this timeless

He makes the guitar sing like a human voice. And his vocals have greatly improved

as an old 80's club singer, I tremble at John's guitar work. It's really another vocal presence. How I miss musicianship like this.

Absolutely the best version of this song.

I HAVE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE THAT SOLO. JOHN SPOKE WITHOUT SPEAKING. ABSOLUTELY HEAVENLY.

You know your a good guitar player when the pianist is pulling a guitar face....AWESOME JOB!!!!

He plays with the blood!! Gives me chills every time he plays the guitar. Virtuoso, impecable, maestro!!

That was an absolutely impeccable performance by the whole band. Blown away.

One thing you cannot doubt about John is his integrity as a musician

It’s amazing how much just slowing things down and making it a little more vibey transformed this already awesome song 😌🤙🏽

4:12 to 4:20 is the most beautiful piece of guitar play ive ever heard i get chills every single time

Master of his Craft! Sang with so much deep emotion! What a legend

John Mayer is the kind of artist that writes and plays a song that makes you think "there is NO way this song could get better, it's just THAT good"... then he releases something like this & can hit you with a whole different set of feels. Those electric solos ughhhh 🤯 🙌 🙌

This entire band is an all-star cast. Masters of all their respective crafts

His pure joy in his face during that beautiful solo. Legend.

Sensationell. Seit 20 Jahren. Einer der besten Guitaristen der Welt !

He's got to be proud of what he's done vocally over the last few decades. People always drool over the guitar but the steeper obstacle in his career was the vocal training.

This guy personifies pure musical joy. And he transmits that same contagious joy to his listeners. Like a musical virus whose only symptoms are second-hand guitar faces and a total, systemic numbness. Unbelievable.

Love this version. Wish all his songs had a ballad version.

He should make an album with nothing but songs just like this.. do it John!!

I love how David Ryan Harris has been there with John for so long 😇

I want this version to be played at my wedding while I'm "slow dancing" with my wife. ❤️

Without knowing this was JM, if someone told me that guitar solo was Prince or Clapton, I'd totally believe it. Incredible!!

WOW, that's it!

Love the original, I love this one even more.

Sounded like a Heavier Things-era solo in the best possible way. I didn’t think he had that soul in him anymore. Very cool!

I found John Mayer on accident about a year or so ago while watching a movie and I got caught up on a theme song, "Gravity", and pulled it up. I deeply love Jazz and Blues and listen to it every night while at work. His music is on ab entire new level. It shows through his entire being. John Mayer is his music. I pray that he stays healthy and safe. His gift to this world is priceless. Keep us all where the light is!!

I remember a shy humble young man the 1st time I saw him many years ago, who had no clue the impact his art would have on this planet. He's just so damn talented I'm still blown away whenever I watch him perform. Just sayin.. ❤

I can’t ever get enough of his guitar playing, like Clapton, never enough guitar in his songs for me

There is an aura from this song even watching it on here that reminds me of the feeling one gets seeing John live. It envelops; warmth; comfort; a palpable sound. And then, John lifts the cozy blanket and leads us from comfort to pure joy with the outro. Slow. Clap. Mr. Mayer.

This guy is just a monster talent. He has an incredible ear and fits in so well with other players.

Masterpiece, what a wholesome version.

He’s phenomenal. While I agree the solo is beautiful; I’ve never once heard a John Mayer solo that wasn’t breathtaking. That said, I’m mesmerized by the intro on this song. There’s just something about it that I can’t put my finger on, but it’s soul deep ❤️

Time stands still when John plays.....❤

Cuando pensaba que el alma no existía, encontré a John Mayer... Esas notas definitivamente llegan al alma, a ningún otro lugar. Mil gracias por esta experiencia.

John and his guitar skill, absolutely breathtaking

This is gonna hit right in the feels

I love this song. Blues roots and the most appropriate lyrics to my time in life.

OMG....been listening to John since early 2000, just when I think he can't get any better he releases Sob Rock👌. The man is a complete and utter musical genius, none better..... next album soon please John🙏

John's guitar talent is overlooked, i think too many people pass him off as just another pop artist

Can we take a short minute here to talk about the amazing vintage synths Greg Phillinganes is playing? Such warmth in the tone!

How in the St. Elmo’s Fire am I just hearing this song? I literally stopped what I was doing to sit and listen after the opening 10 seconds of the guitar 🎸 80’s Nostalgia 🥳 Well done. 👏

I respect John Mayer not only for his amazing look on life and skills in music, but how he's doesn't have kids yet. I know, plenty of great musicians had kids early on, but John wants to give his kids what he never had. He wants to have a solid foundation and Wife before he has kids to spare them the pain of divorce and fighting. Nothing will gain my respect more than that.

This man knows how exactly to do it!! Gotta love him!

What a giant tribute to Clapton. Tone, skill and tasteful licks for days....

Right now i am in a phase of my life where i am not doing good..lots of pressure in life but genuinely john your songs always inspire me in a way to think something positive, to live life. Thank you john ♥️

Long were the nights when My days once revolved around you Counting my footsteps Praying the floor won't fall through again And my mother accused me of losing my mind But I swore I was fine You paint me a blue sky And go back and turn it to rain And I lived in your chess game But you changed the rules every day Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone tonight Well, I stopped picking up and this song is to let you know why Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? The girl in the dress, cried the whole way home I should've known Well, maybe it's me And my blind optimism to blame Or maybe it's you and your sick need To give love then take it away And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors Who don't understand And I'll look back and regret how I ignored when they said "Run as fast as you can" Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? The girl in the dress, cried the whole way home Dear John, I see it all now, it was wrong Don't you think nineteen's too young To be played by your dark, twisted games when I loved you so? I should've known You are an expert at sorry and keeping the lines blurry Never impressed by me acing your tests All the girls that you've run dry have tired lifeless eyes 'Cause you burned them out But I took your matches before fire could catch me So don't look now I'm shining like fireworks over your sad empty town Oh, oh Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? The girl in the dress, cried the whole way home I see it all now that you're gone Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? The girl in the dress wrote you a song You should've known You should've known Don't you think I was too young? You should've known

there’s something magical that occurs whenever john plays his guitar…it’s impeccable and unexplainable after all these years ✨

Just hits a little bit different each time.. If you don’t get chills with a side of absolute peace, even if for a moment - then you ain’t listening to what I’m listening to 🥺♥️

*I LOVE LISTENING TO SOB ROCK WHEN DRIVING!!* 💕💕💕💕💕💋💋💋💋 Thank you John!!! For your awesomeness!!✨✨✨😎😎😎

Man, this hits me so hard. It feels nostalgic yet modern and real.

Just when I didn’t think it could get any more 80s, somehow you did it. This song is a treasure and it just keeps on giving. Thank you for sharing your art with us!

JOHN MAYER IS ONE WIT THE GUITAR 🎸 AN THE GUITAR 🎸 ... IS ONE WIT JOHN MAYER .... SALUTE 🫡

Absolutely incredible. John really takes his listeners to a special place with this version. The minor pentatonic shredding solo gives me chills every time. Truely a beautiful peace of music.

People are talking about the solo, but my god the chord changes have so much breathing space here. Feels like I am sipping on a smoothie for ever.

Can we just appreciate how polished his voice sounds? (his playing goes without saying, let's be honest) But even after his vocal issues in 2012/2013, his voice is buttery smooth, this version is better than the original imo
