Theory Bites 4 - Better Late than Never
hello everybody, if you have been following the series, hopefully you are now comfortable with understanding the first four chords in the key of G
G Am Bm C
In addition to this, I hope that you have committed the notes of that triad to memory. For those that have been taken some sort of course to learn the notes on the neck, this is a great practice, to drill on some of those notes and find them on your guitar neck!
Today is the fifth chord in the Key of G, and honestly the most important chord in the key, besides G so there are two things you want to do: Know its name, and spelling, but know the power it has.
the Chord is D Major, its the “five chord” in G
Memorize the notes that make up D major: DF#A
The power of the “five chord” is, if youre playing a song in the Key of G, and you want to come BACK to G… Play a D chord. It wants to resolve on G! It sounds resolved when you do a D to G.
Till tomorrow!
