This is another way to play your major and minor chords(doh, reh mi fah so la ti do) any where on the neck or fret board of the guitar(take a look at the first way i explained here in the part 1). When many of us started to play the acoustic, we were only taught to play the open chords on the key of C, which is not good enough, because
its only on the key of C. Although many of us learnt how to use the Capo to play on other keys; but still that’s not still good enough. Many websites that you visit use letters to tell you the about the chords, but the way most of we Nigerian’s learnt music is by ear; and its pretty difficult for us to understand the chord patterns that the westerners upload unto their website.
So I’ve improvised some chords that you can play on your guitar;
they are the C, Dm, Em, F, G Am, B.
In other-words they could be written as doh, reh, mi, fah, soh, lah, ti.
In the chord diagrams that I am about to show you below, look at the doh chord carefully and take note of the root note. The root note is C(doh). Also take note of the fret number(whether its the 1st fret, 2nd fret and so on).
Also note that as you start playing the chords, they might not sound right, you would just have to keep rehearsing so your fingers would build the muscles to play the chords. After a few days, you would see that they would sound clearly.
The orange dots are the root notes(doh or C).
Your website is very nice, i have bookmarked it.
