Matthew Lee connects small three-note chord voicings with quick fills from the G major scale.
The trick is to hit the chord change first, then use one or two notes to connect it to the next shape. That gives you rhythm, movement, and a little countermelody without losing the song underneath it.
On a classic like “Should’ve Been a Cowboy,” the goal is not to rewrite the part. Keep the rhythm solid, stay close to the melody, and add just enough around the edges to make the live arrangement feel good.
Start with the transitions. Add the fills after.
