Chord tasting the major7 chords

view image

During a chord-tasting session (like wine-tasting, but you taste chords instead of wine), I stumbled upon the Gmaj7 chord, and fell in love with it.

I love its airy expansiveness. When you play it together with the Cmaj7 chord, you can easily turn them into a 2 chords song with a nice floaty suspense.

I have named this 'song' Fathom. It reminds of scuba diving, regulating my breath underwater, my buoyancy determined by my breathing, and making bubbles as I exhale.

Here's the tab:

E----------2-------------2---------------0------0-2-
B-------0----0--------0---0----------0---0----------
G-----0--------0----0------- 0-----0--------0-------
D---------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------3----------------
E---3-------------3---------------------------------

And here's the loop, good for lullaby on sleepless nights:
