4 Chord Progressions

Next, we'll look at an alternate voicing for the 'A - E - G - D' progression we saw in Example 6. We will use the same Microsong track you played with in Example 6. We will use a different 'E' chord voicing from the one in Example 7, so your part will sound slightly different from the track.

This example uses an 'E' power chord with the lowest string open. Use your index finger to fret at the 2nd fret.
