Beachwood Sparks - Canyon Ride (live acoustic)

[handymandan100]

Is that the drummer clappin' alone in the grass? lol

[disasterology777]

There is hope after all.

[Gold753]

Excellent song!

The guy in the second left looks a lot like David Gilmour!

[MaybaWeen]

@Gold753 His name is Chris Gunst ;+)

does anyone know what chords they are using here besides A and D?

[sanjuro0518]

Hopefully this formats okay.

The verse is A D A E A E F#m E.

The chorus is A F#m D A (sequence played 4 times).

"Do do doo" - E D A

"Sha la la la" - F#m A, then the solo is played over the verse chords.

Then the key changes... The chorus becomes C Am F C and the next part is C G and F.

They play the "Sha la la la" section again and they're done.

One thing to note about this version: it's played half a step down from the album, so detune your guitar if you want to play along with this video.

[mclarke83]

Thanks a lot mate!

You don't have the chords to any other Beachwood Sparks songs, do you?

[sanjuro0518]

This performance & footage deserves a sixth star.

[spazzymcgee5678]

[Bizzangle]

more like the beatles crossed with the dead. have you heard anything by mighty baby? great band.

[spazzymcgee5678]

im from the country is my favorite so far.

[bellton]

Reforming for the sub pop anniversary show this summer. pity it's a one-off and in washington (difficult from ireland when i can barely get a day off!). hopefully, a european tour is on the agenda after as these guys were/are amazing

[nightjasmine25]

Great song!

[fuzzprobe]

so awesome, hello further! what year is this from?

[Lempawpsychedelic]

It started at my toes and worked it's way up into my soul - All is well with the world.

[lmalory]

oh my goodness, i love these guys! they are so fantastic. their sound is so pure and simple and incredible.

[tomuchshoegazing]

this rules

Beachwood Sparks - best short-lived band of all time? Together, they could do no wrong, but apart, the Tyde and All-Night Radio just don't measure up. Once We Were Trees - best album of the 2000s!!! Get back together, guys! Thanks for posting this and bringing me back...

[MattHatter]

Dude I bought "Once We Were Trees" a few years back and just had my mind blown! I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Being a huge collector of '60s rock bands like Buffalo Springfield, etc., Beachwood Sparks knocked me out!

[electricsugarcube]

the unbelievable amount of mellow they are exuding is making me quite heady

[buddude420]

whoa..this is so great, thanks for this!!

[viola1]

Definitely great to see footage of these guys. Especially live in the backyard!

[drzaius2000]

Wow...this is great...i never get to see footage these guys
