If you are new to playing guitar, then guitar chords are one of the easiest things to learn. All you need is a good reference, like a dictionary of chords to learn and memorize the shape of any chord you want.
This article focuses on helping you make sense of the different types of chords is very likely to find, and give you an advantage when you're ready to learn some music theory involved in the construction of chords.
So let's start by taking the mystery of a line most likely related jargon is found. We begin first with the basic definition of a chord.
Basic Chords
The simplest type of chord is created from 3 (usually different) notes played simultaneously. An F-major chord, for example, consists of the notes F, A and C. All chords major and minor key, you can create with just 3 notes.
ADVANCED CHORDS
A chord is not limited to only 3 notes, nor is it necessary that every note must be unique. For example, if you play F-major chord as a "has the following pattern of 6 notes Barre ': FCFACF.
In theory, you could have a rope with more notes than you have fingers!
The more complex chords are typically created by stacking of intervals, the addition or discontinuation of tones and investment creation. For example, a D-major9 # 11 is built by adding the 7th, 9th and tone-D 11 scale at the top of a D-major chord.
You might wonder how this is possible only when there are 8 notes in the scale. What happens is that the notes 9 and 11 are actually repeated notes, started from the beginning of the scale. In this case, the note 9 is "E" and footnote 11 is 'G'.
Some terms to memorize: increased (August), suspended (SUS), low (DIM), addition, subtraction (-).
Power chords
Power chords are not technically consistent in the strictest sense because it consists of just two notes. Power chords are actually intervals what is known as 'empty fifths'. The easiest place for them is playing in the background (bass) guitar strings.
To create a "fifth interval" naked, all you have to do is remove the "third way" of a basic chord and just play the root note with a dominant fifth. An A-line high power, for example, is simply the notes A and E.
Remember the song "Jessie's Girl" by Rick Springfield? The main riff of the song is a progression of power chords. Try playing in D-major, using the following progression from the fifth fret position 5: D / A, A / E, B / E, G / D, A / E, D / A.
And that's it for this tutorial. If and when you want to learn more about creating your own chords, I recommend taking a good book that teaches the theory of relations between the scales, chords and modes.
