As helpful as Guitar Chords might be to you, you might not be ready for your personal copy right now. Instead, play through these quick chord tips from MaximumMusician.com.
Tip 1:
Play a blues in C:
Strum C7 8 times.
Strum F7 4 times.
Strum C7 again 4 times.
Strum G7 twice, then F7 twice.
Strum C7 twice, then G7 twice.
Repeat, starting from "Strum C7 8 times."
Tired of playing in C? Here are blues for keys F and G.
Blues in F:
F7 (8), Bb7(4), F7(4), C7(2)
Bb7(2), F7(2), C7(2), repeat
Blues in G:
G7 (8), C7(4), G7(4), D7(2)
C7(2), G7(2), D7(2), repeat
Tip 2:
To make a happy song sound sad, replace major chords with minor chords two letter names down. Examples:
Instead of G major, play E minor. (Count, "G, one; F, two; E, *three*)
Instead of C major, play A minor. (Count, "C, one; B, two; A, *three*)
Instead of F major, play D minor. (Count, "F, one; E, two; D, *three*)
Tip 3:
Break away from the same major key to play a minor progression. Strum each of these twice:
Am, G, F, E7, repeat
Tip 4:
To put chords to a melody: work out the key center for the melody, and try out the first, second, and fifth chords from that key center; select the chord that sounds best. Example: if the melody is in C major, sing while you play the C (the first), Dm (the second), and G7 (the fifth) chords with your voice. Pick the chord that sounds best.
