Chord Lesson 5
Open G Chord
In Chord Lesson 3 we learned the diatonic triads that belonged to the key of C major by building a C major scale and we learned the V chord in the key of C was a G major chord.
We could also build a G major scale, in which case the G would be the I chord.

Either way we end up with the notes:
G B D

Lowest note to highest: G B D G B G

Just like in Chord Lesson 3 we can stack the notes: line line line, space space space and we will have the 7 chords that belong to the Key of G.

Below is a progression using 4 of the chords we have learned so far.

G

Em

C

Am
