Melody Calling Chords
by The Vaccines
Melody Calling by The Vaccines is a more advanced guitar song played in the key of G. It uses the chords Gmaj7, Asus2, F#, Bm and A. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
Pretty straight forward song but the Gmaj7 and Asus2 chords may have eluded beginners
when trying to work out this great track.
These 2 chords give it that airy, atmospheric vibe (that and half a ton of reverb!)
In the second half of the Chorus try to emphasise that top note (F#) of the Gmaj7 chord. Enjoy!
