Transcript

Welcome to the key of G. This is one of the most famous keys to play the guitar. And first, we're going to start with the E minor seven chord, the variation that I showed you in the last module. So remember how I showed you that you can play an E minor seven by forming the E minor this way with your index and middle finger and then placing your ring finger on the B string, third fret on the B string and then placing your mid pinky finger on the last string on the high E string. fret. This shape of an E minor seven is very commonly used in the key of G. And in fact, in the key of G if you see an E minor, you could play this shape. So go ahead and practice it.

Give it a few strums. Remember the fundamentals like space here, your thumb not like this, fingers curved, getting out of the way of other strings and so on. You can try playing one string at a time. There we go. Give your handbrake for sure. Hmm.

Now what we're gonna do is practice transitioning from the G chord to the E minor seven chord. So we got our G chord here. I'll give you a minute to our second to Set it up, give it a few strums. Now, what's really neat is you'll notice that these two fingers, the ring finger and the pinky finger stay there while you transition to the E minor seven chord, G chord, E minor seven chord or in the key of G really you can just say E minor. So give that a try transitioning from the G chord to the E minor chord that looks like this or that is shaped like this in the key of G. It should also be noted that when we see an a sus two generally you can play an A, when you see D sus two, generally you can just play a D as well, and vice versa.

It really depends on the key that you're in. I won't get into that too much right now. But just so you know, when you're comfortable transitioning from the G chord to the E minor seven chord this way, then head over to the next lesson.
