Hi, Malcolm from Guitars Rock.
Slipjohn B by the Beach Boys.
So what I've got is, I've [E] got an echo effect on, which I think gives it a [Em] real Beach Boys
sound to it.
And I'm playing the D shape [D] chords.
It's in the key of G, and that's the D chord there.
And G, [G] it's up here on the 7th fret.
I'll just take the echo off for a minute.
So I'm picking, I'm on the 7th fret, 1st string, 8th fret, 2nd string, and 7th fret, 3rd string.
So I'm picking 1, 2, 3.
[D] And then I'm putting the [G] suspended in with my pinky.
[B] Now I'm changing down to D, [D] [C#m] [G] and back to the G,
[C] and then to the C, which is on your 12th
fret, [G] and back to the G.
[D#m] [D] [G] [C]
Some minor there, which is C minor, [Cm]
which is your minor chord down on your 3rd fret.
I guess you could play it up here.
[E] Anyway, I prefer it down there.
So now there is another option that you play this bar chord here.
[A] So that's [G] G on the 10th fret.
[Em] It should sound like this.
[G]
[D] [G] All
[C] [Cm] [G] [D]
[G] right.
[D] [G]
[C] [Cm] [G] [D]
[G] And then if you were just wanting to strum it.
So you're on G here.
Okay?
[D] [G]
[C] [Cm] [G] [D]
[G] [N] So
