00:00:09,444 --> 00:00:13,882
Hey, how're you doing ? Justin here. 
As usual, continuing the beginners course.

2
00:00:14,067 --> 00:00:16,798
Now we are checking out the E minor chord.

3
00:00:17,182 --> 00:00:19,207
Now the E minor chord is a piece of cake.

4
00:00:19,299 --> 00:00:22,691
In fact, it's so easy I was just even 
thinking about not making a video for it.

5
00:00:23,060 --> 00:00:27,952
But I thought it might feel upset if we made videos for all the other chords and then didn't for this one.

6
00:00:28,044 --> 00:00:29,522
I didn't want it to feel left out.

7
00:00:29,522 --> 00:00:34,426
So I'll do a little close up for it but this one is really easy.

8
00:00:35,518 --> 00:00:41,148
Here we are for a look at E minor. 
This is the easiest chord on the beginners course.

9
00:00:41,148 --> 00:00:42,322
I've give you a clue.

10
00:00:42,322 --> 00:00:47,863
There's E, there's E minor. Whey hey! 
So it's only using two fingers.

11
00:00:47,863 --> 00:00:50,750
Now to be honest you can use any 
fingers that you want for this.

12
00:00:50,750 --> 00:00:56,201
Sometimes you might want to use fingers one and two. For example, later on when we look at the G chord,

13
00:00:56,201 --> 00:00:59,678
it's a lot easier to use fingers one and two for E minor.

14
00:00:59,678 --> 00:01:02,759
We haven't done G chord yet so that is probably not even entering your mind.

15
00:01:02,759 --> 00:01:06,256
But you could use two or three
which is what we are doing now.

16
00:01:06,256 --> 00:01:09,211
Later on, you may even want to use three and four
or one and four.

17
00:01:09,211 --> 00:01:12,389
Actually that would be really stupid but you could use any combination

18
00:01:12,389 --> 00:01:15,075
that you want as long as you are holding the right dots.

19
00:01:15,075 --> 00:01:20,206
Now the one I recommend you use for this beginner part is fingers two and three.

20
00:01:20,206 --> 00:01:24,952
It is quite simply finger two,
on the second fret of the fifth string

21
00:01:24,952 --> 00:01:28,511
and finger three on the second fret of the fourth string.

22
00:01:28,561 --> 00:01:32,794
Now all of those notes should be pretty straight forward as long as you remembering to keep your fingers round.

23
00:01:32,794 --> 00:01:37,021
The only one that people seem to have trouble with sometimes is the G string.

24
00:01:37,021 --> 00:01:40,437
(plays) that note there

25
00:01:40,437 --> 00:01:43,471
(plays) sounds like that because they let their

26
00:01:43,471 --> 00:01:45,846
third finger lean over a little bit too much and it mutes it

27
00:01:45,846 --> 00:01:48,946
(plays) if you bring your fingers back onto the finger tips

28
00:01:48,946 --> 00:01:54,175
from there (plays) you should get yourself a nice chord.
