Beautiful Chord Progressions Guitar 1In this video, you learn 3 beautiful chord progressions that are easy to play and sound amazing!

Playing standard chord progressions on guitar is perfectly fine, but there are plenty of ways to transform these into emotional and beautiful music. In fact, many of these variations are just as easy, if not easier, to play than the original versions.

In this lesson, you learn 3 beautiful chord progressions that use non standard, unique chord shapes including the add 9 chord, minor add 9 chord and the major 7 chord amongst others. The third progression shows you a neat little trick that will allow you to play all over the fretboard using the same chord shape for a very cool sound.

But first, you learn the shapes that will be used throughout each progression as a whole in isolation.

Then you learn 3 beautiful sounding progressions made up of these chord shapes. I will break down each progression in detail so you can follow exactly what I am doing, and also understand what is going on so you can create your own versions and variations of each progression.
