Beacon by Matt Duncan
Beacon
Capo: 1st fret
A lot of the Gmaj7''''s are subtle variations played by the piano,
and sound a bit more saucy on the guitar. Swap them to standard G''''s if you like that better.
I tend to like playing a short G and quick switch to Gmaj7
(in the chords marked by G / Gmaj7 ).
Intro: | G | Gmaj7 | G / Gmaj7 | Em |
