Guitar Plays F m(maj9)

F m(maj9) spells F – G – G# – C – E. A chord chart tells you that much and stops; an arrangement asks what happens to it once the song is actually playing, which is the question this page answers.

The guitar chair carries the boom-chick floor — a bass note on the strong beats, a strum answering it on the weak ones: the shape below is what a right hand strums, and which bass note opens it decides how the boom half of boom-chick actually walks.

Every shape below is drawn for EADGBE, 6 strings, with the open shapes first and the movable ones up the neck after them, and each one plays back so you can hear it before it goes on a record.
