Therefore I deliberately avoided trying in the first place. On the other hand, the solo guitar as an advanced chord instrument WILL always be somewhat inadequate and thus unsatisfactory in this school of harmony. This is the premise, as I see it, and not an excuse for just not trying. So I will give it a go! Capo 3rd fret, and I see no way around "Capo 4th fret" at the key change! :D (I have million chord names left out on purpose to avoid causing a mess here.) |-2--2--|-2--2--|-3--3--|-3--3--| |-0--3--|-3--3--|-2--1--|-2--| |-3--3--|-3--1--|-3--0--|-3--0--| |-0--4--|-3--2--|-3--2--|-3--| |-2--3--|-4--2--|-0--0--|-0--0--| |-0--0--|-0--0--|-2--0--|-2--| |-0--0--|-0--1--|-2--1--|-0--1--| |-2--2--|-2--2--|-0--3--|-0--| |-------|----2--|-2--2--|-2--2--| |-2--2--|-2--0--|----0--|----| |-------|-------|-0-----|-0-----| |-0--0--|-0-----|-------|----| |-2--|-2--|-2--|-0--| |-2--|-2--|----0--|-2-----------5---2-| |-3--|-3--|-3--|-3--| |-2--|-3--|-3--2--|-3---5-3-3---7---3-| |-2--|-3--|-4--|-4--| |-2--|-2--|-0--2--|-4---4-3-2---7---3-| |-0--|-0--|-0--|-2--| |-2--|-4--|-0--2--|-4---2-2-1---5---5-| |----|----|-x--|-x--| |-4--|-2--|-2--x--|-x---4-3-2---5---0-| |----|----|-3--|-3--| |-2--|----|-0--2--|-3-----------0-----| |-0--2--|-2--2--|-2--|-0--| |-0--3--|-3--3--|-2--2--|-0--2--| |-2--3--|-0--1--|-0--|-2--| |-0--4--|-3--2--|-2--0--|-1--1--| |-2--3--|-2--2--|-0--|-0--| |-0--0--|-0--0--|-2--2--|-0--2--| |-0--0--|-0--1--|-0--|-2--| |-2--2--|-2--2--|-0--0--|-2--0--| |-------|-------|-2--|-0--| |-2--2--|-2--0--|-------|-0-----| |-------|-------|-0--|----| |-0--0--|-0-----|-------|-------| |-2--|-2--|-2--|-2--| |-2--2--|-3--0--|-----------3---1-|---1-2---| |-3--|-3--|-3--|-3--| |-3--3--|-3--3--|-5---5-3---3---3-|---3-2---| |-2--|-3--|-4--|-1--| |-2--2--|-0--0--|-4---4-2---2---2-|---2-3---| |-0--|-0--|-0--|-0--| |-0--4--|-2--2--|-4---4-2---3---3-|---3-5---| |----|----|-x--|-2--| |-0--2--|-2--0--|-5---5-3-------1-|---1-0---| |----|----|-3--|-0--| |-------|-0-----|-----------------|---------| +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Jon Sebastian Frederiksen - 5th /September /13 Just mail me at Maitinin@gmail.com with questions, comments and corrections!
