The nine chords we’ve covered so far are G, Em, C, D, Am, Dm7, Dm, E, and B7.

There are two ways to play the “G” low chord

Pattern ①

6th string 3rd fret ⇒ middle finger
5th string 2nd fret ⇒ index finger
4th string open
3rd string open
2nd string 3rd fret ⇒ Ring finger
1st string 3rd fret ⇒ little finger


Pattern ②

6th string 3rd fret ⇒ Ring finger
5th string 2nd fret ⇒ middle finger
4th string open
3rd string open
2nd string open
