Free Guitar Chord Charts

by Admin on Nov.26, 2010, under Foghat

This article will show you how to make the best use of free guitar chord charts that you can find online. As the internet changes, sites go down and new ones come up, so I won’t risk this resource going out of date by discussing where to find your free guitar chord charts, just how to use them to kick start your guitar playing.

You can easily get together a nice collection of chord charts and lyrics to your favorite songs to help you learn to play the guitar. If you feel that you should be learning a whole bunch of musical theory and how to read musical notation, but somehow feel it’s just not you, then that’s okay – start with what you feel most enthusiastic about. Once you have started to learn using guitar chord charts you have bought or downloaded for free, you might see as you go along that you will need to know a little bit about musical theory to see how chords and scales fit together. If, however, you are comfortable learning chords to your favorite songs, then keep at it.

So let’s start with the basic baby steps and work up to some really useful knowledge about guitar chords and how the dots on the charts relate to musical sounds. You know the frets on your guitar’s neck somehow show you where the notes are, so let’s get a little more technical. You will see when you use scale charts to learn to play guitar tunes that in a given position on the fret board, you will sometimes need to move up or down one fret or two frets. If you play the note at the first fret, and then move up to the second fret, you have moved up a semitone. If you have moved up two frets, it is called a tone. The distance between the notes E and F or B and C is a tone. The distance between the notes C and D is a tone. So as you learn songs in different keys you will start to see that what you are playing when you play scales is different patterns of tones or semi tones on the guitar neck.

If you have watched guitarists play you will have noticed that sometimes they place their index finger across all six strings. This is called a barre. When you begin to learn songs you will be making use of chords played in the FIRST position on the fret board. These are mostly open chords, that is chords that do not make use of the barre. You can try to play barre chords any time, but it’s a bit ambitious to expect to be able to use them until after your hands have done some practice with open chords.

When you are learning chords to accompany songs, you will probably make use of your chord charts showing you chords that use all the guitar’s strings. But if you want to get into playing solos start with the three note chords called triads. The three notes in a triad are the basic notes of your chord, so by learning triads you will begin to see how the guitar chords are structured. Also you can move your triads up and down the fret board to make new chords.
Here’s an example:
The chord of A Major is made up of the notes A C# and E shown in tab form as:

E—————————————–
B————–2————————–
G————–2————————–
D————–2————————–
A—————————————–
E—————————————–

Move that shape one semitone (one fret) up the neck and you get A# or Bb.

E—————————————–
B————–3————————–
G————–3————————–
D————–3————————–
A—————————————–
E—————————————–

One fret higher is B Major.

E—————————————–
B————–4————————–
G————–4————————–
D————–4————————–
A—————————————–
E—————————————–

This shape played anywhere on the neck will give you a major chord. The fret it is played at tells you the key it is in.

Here are the notes for the triads of the basic chords:
C Major – C E G
D Major – D F# A
E Major – B E G#
F Major – C F A
G Major – G B D
A Major – A C# E
B Major – B D# F#

Now the minor chords:
C Minor – C Eb G
D Minor – D F A
E Minor – B E G
F Minor – C F Ab
G Minor – G Bb D
A Minor – A C E
B Minor – B D F#
Naturally, there will be some points you need to make a little clearer, so you will find more descriptions and illustrations available for free on the internet.

Is Digital Music Really As Amazing As Its Made Out

Is Digital Music Really As Amazing As Its Made Out To Be

Is digital music really worth all of its hype that it constantly receives? Perhaps it is, I do not know really, what do you all really think about it and do you feel that it is truly worthy of its obviously amazing recognition? Throughout this article I want to go over a few things with you regarding digital music and provide you with some different questions that you too might want to ask yourself before believing all of this hype about digital music and how its the greatest thing going today.

Digital music is quite unique and yes, it does make things easier and more convenient. However, with all of that said, is it really all that amazing really? What about the old record players that played those huge records? Me myself, I still think that those things were and are still truly unbelievably amazing and deserve all of the hype that they ever received or still are getting even today.

No matter how incredible digital music is, I am still an avid observer of what pertains to good music and what type of device really deserves all of that fabulous talk that has been going on with the whole digital music thing. Digital music does rock but what about when you listened to your all time favorite bands on 8 track players. How freaking awesome were 8 track players? Me personally, I still believe them to be quite an incredible and unique invention. I still remember listening to my moms 8 track player whenever I was just a little girl and I will never forget that either.

For me, things such as those pieces of equipment, they truly deserve hype, they deserve recognition of some sort, they deserve wows and praise and they should and are still being used by so many people believe it or not. The quality might be a little bit or a lot different than from what you receive whenever you are listening to digital music but does the new and improved and incredible digital music have that raw sound that you remember when you listened to an old album playing or whenever your mommy put in her favorite 8 track into her 8 track player? I really, truly, and most honestly, do not believe so.

Too many things are changing and sometimes it can be very exhausting trying to keep up with all of the incredible and scary changes being made. Digital music is just another change in our lives that we are going to have to get used to but some of us might not agree that it is all that it is cracked up to be, believe it or not!

Stick to your guns on this people, you do not have to agree with the majority of people out there, be yourself, you are an individual not a group of people trying to make a choice. Digital music is crystal clear and definitely amazing, but some things are just better left untouched, you know what I mean?
