Hey, how's it going you guys?
Marty Schwartz here.
I want to teach you _ a real easy song to get your bar chords going.
Basically, I'm just using one bar chord shape that's derived from an E major chord.
So if I imagine that my first finger pressed down to get the open [F] strings and I played,
use these fingers to play an E major chord, that would be E major.
Half step to F major, whole step to G major, whole step to A major, _ whole step to B major,
half step to C major.
So in other words, E to F [B] and B to C [C] _
in music are always a fret apart, no matter what, and
on any instrument too, a half step.
[G] So we're just going to use this one shape and it goes like this.
The first shape is a G major bar chord.
_ _ _ Then we're going to [Bb] just slide it up to where my first finger would be on the sixth fret. _
_ _ Then we're going to slide it [F] down to the first fret, _ which would be F, an F major chord or
[C] F major bar chord, and then all the way up to the eighth fret, which would be a C major
chord.
Same shape, [G] slid around, so check it out.
G, third fret, _ _ [Bb] up to the sixth fret, _ _ _ first fret, _ [F] _
and then [C] to the eighth fret.
_ _ That's it.
And we're going to do a little rhythm.
_ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ We're going to do that for each chord.
Down, down, up, down, [Bb] up. Next chord. _
_ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ [G] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[C] _ _ So, what you could do is if you're still working on the rhythm there, you could just strum
the down strum for each chord.
You could also practice it as power [G] chords.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [C] _ _ If it's hard to go from this and slide it all the way up in time to the eighth fret,
you could play a regular C major chord as the [G] last chord, like, _ [Bb] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
[C] _ _ [Ebm] you could do it like that.
But, basically, it's just good to start practicing that sliding bar chord.
Also, it's the same shape, moved around, so it's not that hard.
So if you're a beginner trying to work out the bar chords, this is a fun song to use that with.
Also, I like it because it's nice and short, concise, to [G] the point.
That's it.
_ I've got a ton of guitar lessons on my site, GuitarJams.com.
_ DVDs for sale, you know, all that.
Now I've got this new channel, You Can Learn Guitar, which is techniques, bar chord lessons
on there as well.
_ And, yeah, it's just been real fun _ and short.
I like it.
Alright?
So, anyway, we'll see you at the next lesson.
Keep the comments, requests, ratings, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
keeping track of all that stuff, reading all your comments.
So, I appreciate it.
Alright?
See ya!
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] Bye!
