Dialogue: 0,0:00:18.68,0:00:24.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,When you play a regular open E chord, \Nthe low note E is the open string,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:24.91,0:00:26.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which is the 6th string.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:26.43,0:00:29.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So that's kind of the, what we \Ncall the 'root' note of the chord.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.05,0:00:34.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The concept of this root note is that if\Nwe move a chord and it doesn't use any
Dialogue: 0,0:00:34.07,0:00:39.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,open strings the chord has a root note \Nand that becomes the name of the chord.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:39.11,0:00:43.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this chord here, where \Nwe moved E up one fret,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:43.18,0:00:49.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and put the barre down to make F, \Nthe reason that that chord is called F,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:49.08,0:00:53.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is cause the root note, the note \Nunderneath your first finger is the note F.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:53.00,0:00:57.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now if we think about where the \Nother notes are on the 6th string,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:57.03,0:01:01.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,say the 3rd fret of the \N6th string is the note G,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:01.57,0:01:05.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so if we put down our barre chord shape, \Nthe same one that we're just talking about now,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:05.72,0:01:09.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but now the 3rd fret, \Nthe note underneath the 1st finger,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:09.77,0:01:14.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,3rd fret, 6th string, is the note \NG, so it becomes a G chord.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:14.46,0:01:20.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then if we move it up \Nanother two frets it becomes the note A.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.15,0:01:24.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this becomes A barre chord, and you \Ncan hear these things if you test them,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:24.56,0:01:28.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's quite a nice thing to listen \Nto, is the G at the 3rd fret,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:28.55,0:01:33.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,barre chord and G open \Nchord. Very, very similar chords.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:33.51,0:01:40.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,An A chord with open A. \NThat's A at the 5th fret.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:40.27,0:01:45.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They sound slightly different of \Ncourse, it's a different voicing,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:45.15,0:01:47.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or a different grip of the \Nchord, but it's essentially the same chord.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.82,0:01:49.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it's a good \Nidea that you hear \Nthat.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:49.77,0:01:52.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, there's also a \Nfew very common variations.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:52.97,0:01:57.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Of this E shape. We've \Njust been talking about E Major,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:57.64,0:02:00.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and that's definitely the first one \Nthat you should try and get down,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:00.28,0:02:04.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but after that you can \Nalso learn minor, dominant 7th,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:04.29,0:02:08.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and minor 7. Dominant 7th \Nis obviously sometimes just called 7.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:08.75,0:02:11.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, we're gonna go \Nback to another closeup now,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.83,0:02:15.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if I can get my little \Nremote going, and then we'll check
Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.73,0:02:19.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,out what these other variations are \Non the E barre chord shape.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.58,0:02:25.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,OK, here we are now, this \Nis up at the 5th fret,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.43,0:02:29.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I'm holding this chord down, this \Nwould be an A barre chord,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.52,0:02:33.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,A Major, and just very often \Nreferred to as just A barre chord.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:33.70,0:02:36.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, the first variation that \Nyou want to learn of this,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.67,0:02:39.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or the first kind of way \Nof changing this into another chord,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.14,0:02:45.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is by lifting of the 2nd \Nfinger, will get us an Am chord.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:45.36,0:02:49.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Just the same as when you had an E \Nopen chord and you lifted off your 1st finger,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:49.30,0:02:52.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you got an Em chord, \Nwith this, we started with A,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:52.68,0:02:57.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if we lift off the 2nd \Nfinger we get Am barre chord.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:57.29,0:03:02.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Obviously my helps in \Nhere (?), there's the Major,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:02.60,0:03:07.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,lift off that 2nd finger, \Nand you've got the minor.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:07.53,0:03:10.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now you can see that my 2nd finger's kind of
Dialogue: 0,0:03:10.33,0:03:13.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,lending a little bit of assistance \Nthere to the 1st finger.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:13.76,0:03:16.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's completely cool for that one \Nto sit on top there a bit.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:16.41,0:03:19.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It does make it a lot \Neasier to hold the barre down.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:19.33,0:03:21.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I don't recommend that \Nyou only learn that way,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:21.24,0:03:23.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but particularly when you start, you \Nmight want a little bit of assistance.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:23.86,0:03:27.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Or if the action's high on your guitar, and \Nyou need to press the strings down pretty hard,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:27.77,0:03:32.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that can be a bit of \Nan advantage. So then we've got Major,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:32.38,0:03:40.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,lift off the 2nd finger, minor. Now, if \Nwe go back to Major for a second,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:40.53,0:03:48.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and we lift off little finger, \Nwe end up with a 7.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:48.26,0:03:53.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Just again, if you think back to E \Nchord, if you have a regular E chord,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:53.68,0:03:57.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and you lifted off your 3rd \Nfinger, you'd end up with E7.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:57.69,0:04:00.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so the same shape applies \Nup here, so this is A,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:00.04,0:04:09.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,lift off little finger, and you've got \NA7, now you can combine those two things,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:09.01,0:04:11.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which was lifting off \N2nd finger to get minor,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:11.57,0:04:17.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,lifting off little finger to \Nget 7, and you get m7.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:17.64,0:04:23.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Am7, so Major, lift off \N2nd finger rather, is minor,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:23.23,0:04:29.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,lift off little finger is A7. \NLift off 2nd finger and little finger,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:29.33,0:04:37.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and you get Am7. So there (?) \Nthe four common E shape barre chord forms.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:37.89,0:04:44.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Major, minor, 7 and m7.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:44.81,0:04:47.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So you definitely want \Nto check those things out.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:47.79,0:04:52.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Remember that they all move, \Nso that was A, 7,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:52.55,0:04:55.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with the little finger off, if \NI move it up 1 it's Bb7,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:55.72,0:05:00.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if I move it up again it's B7. You got it.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:00.17,0:05:05.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They all move around as much as you like.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:05.16,0:05:07.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is a pretty weird one, I'm \Nnot trying to show off my T-shirt,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:07.58,0:05:10.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I'm not trying to look \Nlike I'm chopping my own head off.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:10.07,0:05:13.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I just want to talk a little \Nbit about this part of your arm,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:13.14,0:05:16.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and how it sits for your barre chord.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:16.55,0:05:18.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So right now I'm holding an A barre chord,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:18.87,0:05:22.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You can see here that this join \Nhere from my forearm into my hand,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:22.97,0:05:26.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is quite straight along here.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:26.09,0:05:28.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,A lot of people when \Nthey start their barre chords,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:28.06,0:05:32.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,they try and do this, so in \Norder to make their 1st finger straight here,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:32.64,0:05:34.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,their trying to \Nstraighten their whole hand,

Dialogue: 0,0:05:37.97,0:05:40.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and that's kinda bending \Nin the wrong place.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:40.07,0:05:42.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you keep your \N1st finger straight of course,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:42.22,0:05:45.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you think about it, instead of, \Nto make your 1st finger straight,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:45.07,0:05:48.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you can either do that, \Nbring your whole hand up,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:48.26,0:05:51.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or you could just bend your fingers up, \Nand keep this part of your hand straight.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:51.23,0:05:53.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Which is a lot \Nbetter, you've got all of \N

Dialogue: 0,0:06:28.72,0:06:31.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, try and make sure \Nwhen you're playing your barre,
