What's on the Chart
Four rows of six: the six major chords most songs use (C, D, E, F, G, A), six minor and minor-seventh chords, six dominant sevenths for blues and country, and six major-seventh and suspended chords for colour. Every diagram is the easiest common shape — open position wherever one exists — and the notes of the chord are printed underneath.
Read each diagram as the guitar faces you: the thickest string on the left, the nut at the top. An x above a string means do not play it, an o means play it open, and a number beside the diagram is the fret it starts on.
How to Use It
Pin it where you practise and learn one row at a time. Within a row, practise changing between pairs of chords that share fingers — Am and C, E and Em, D and A — before chords that move every finger. F is the only full barre chord on the sheet; if it will not ring yet, use Fmaj7 from the bottom row in its place.
Every chord on the chart has its own page in the chord library with more voicings and audio, so you can hear what it should sound like before you print.
