Video Transcript: Guitar - Basic Chords Part 02


All right here in this lesson, we're going to expand, we learned three chords in the key of D, A, and G. And we're going to start adding, we're going to add a relative minor, and we're going to add some other keys, that the hard part is already done. The hardest part is just learning three chords. And if you've done that, congratulations, because the rest is just learning more chords, learning more of what you've already learned. So if we're in the key of D, and you can download the, the chord chart on that, if we're in the key of D, we learned A and G, the only thing we didn't learn is its relative minor. These are major chords in the key of D, there's a relative minor, that just means that it sounds really good with these other chords, the relative minor of D is B minor. You can look at your car, check how to play that. This is the simplest way to play B minor, you want to play a fuller B minor use all four fingers. You got D, B minor, G and A


And this this pattern was really popular in the 50s it was (singing O Dona) And then I think it was in the 60s, the Christian community started playing guitar. And this was a popular one, maybe maybe you're older like me, but (singing)


so it's just playing the key of D was that we already learned. And it's adding that relative minor. So more keys, we learned D let's try G, well, let's try C, let's go to the key of C in the key of C, there's the chord C, and there's G, you already know G and there's the hardest one of all F. So you know the G already. So we only have to learn two chords to learn this next key we're in the key of C, C is just played like this. The easiest way to play C if you want to play a full C that's also on your downloaded sheet, see the chord chart on it. So this is C come G and then finally, F and that's on your chord chart. That the hard part and this is the symbol F This is the full F. the hard part about an F is, is these two right here because you're holding down two strings with one finger. 


And for years, that's that's hard. People generally again, they have their hand not anchored here. And so they try to press down two strings, and then the next ones. And then people end up sounding like this. Because their fingers are touching the wrong strings. And people really get frustrated you you'll probably get frustrated too with with F. My only advice is you just got to keep doing it. Eventually your fingers will find the way it's going to sound. It's not it's not as nice as mine. But I've been playing for a long time. Eventually, for me, what helped is I just in my mind, it was like scrunching the neck, I took my fingers and I just pressed them like as close together as I could. And so for me it was that sensation. And all of a sudden, it felt pretty good. But you have to just keep practicing and keep practicing it, trust me eventually the F will come but that's probably the hardest one. And then the relative minor of the key of C is A minor. And that's your chord chart as well. That's a very easy chord to learn. So we've got C, G, A minor F.


Then the next. That's probably one of the most popular keys of a guitar player plays. There's C and then D. And now we're going to look at the key of G very popular key for a guitar players. And the cool thing about the key of G is you already know these chords in the key of G we have G which we learned already in the key of D and the next one is C which we've already learned in the key of C And then the next chord is D, we already learned in the key of D. So, if you learn those first two, which is kind of interesting, like you'd learn five chords and you know the three basic keys that guitar players play, so we already know, G, C, D and the relative minor of the key of G is E minor. (playing) Those are the basic chords.
