Guitar: Chords for a Country Arrangement

62 qualities, every root — pick one below for the shape and the job this chair does with it.

The chord reference for this chair. Pick a root, then any of 62 qualities, and get the shapes plus the thing a chord chart never tells you: what this chair does with the chord once the arrangement is running.

The guitar chair carries the boom-chick floor — a bass note on the strong beats, a strum answering it on the weak ones: the shape below is what a right hand strums, and which bass note opens it decides how the boom half of boom-chick actually walks.

Every shape below is drawn for EADGBE, 6 strings, with the open shapes first and the movable ones up the neck after them, and each one plays back so you can hear it before it goes on a record.
