Barenaked Ladies - Maybe Not

very easy song from bnl’s 2007 album “barenaked ladies are men” . i determined
these chords by watching the “bathroom sessions” version . these chords should be
pretty close to perfect .

– standard tuning –

– no capo –

the chords are played as follows :
Gmaj7 : 300021
Gmaj7 ( 2 ) : 300022
G : 320033
D : xx0232
Cadd9 : x32033
