For the fifth session of The Song, According to Matt Munisteri, Matt fast-forwards to the 1960s to look at the Brian Wilson song “In My Room.” He says, “This song was never a big hit like many other Beach Boys tunes, but it’s still a winner, and has a lot to teach us about basic inversions and diatonic harmony. Plus it’s got one beautiful example of an inner-voiced harmony that really makes the tune. We’re going to learn an arrangement in the key of A that attempts to bring some of the Beach Boys’s lush-and-layered harmonies to the guitar!”
But Matt starts by revisiting the verse to ‘Singing in the Rain,’ this time showing you a chord melody version.
