Borrowed Chords (Secondary Dominant)
Posted by: | CommentsA nice introduction to borrowed chords even though it’s on a piano. ![]()
Borrowed chords often refer to using chords from the relative minor key but it’s often used to indicate chords that aren’t in the current key. The main idea is to approach the G chord with it’s dominant chord (up a fifth interval) which is D7. This is known as a secondary dominant. Note the progression Am D7 G C follows the cycle of fifths!
Beginner Guitar Chord Chart
Posted by: | CommentsHere’s a nice beginner guitar chord chart. Do the basic open chords first (C, D, E, A, G), leaving F for last. F is tough due to the ‘bar’ you make with your first finger (laying it flat across 2 strings at once).
Then move on to bar chords. Bar Chords are great because they are movable. There are only a few shapes, chords starting on 6 string, chords starting on 5 string, with each having a major and minor shape.
