Hi, Lee. Cracking website – thanks for making the effort and putting it out there.
My question: Having put together a four-chord sequence, are there any rules that dictate where the sequence might go from there? Should I write a melody line that passes chord four and gives me a clue?
I can find a chord five that fits but the sixth is another matter… 🙁
Cheers, Gary.
Lee, thanks for your prompt response.
I knocked up a pic of chord shapes but can’t post them so (according to a chord-finder website) they are:
Em [7th fret], D6 [5th fret], Am maj 7 [5th fret] and then little finger up to B on the 7th fret (on and off twice) to make the (9).
It’s actually an intro so in my first post I should have said bass line rather than melody. I’ve decided to wimp out and look for two four-note arpeggios that will enable me to play the above chords twice. Then I’ll worry about how to get into the main body of the song…
Strumming pattern is similar to ‘Another brick in the wall’. Play it slow or finger pick and it sounds like ‘Hotel California’ !!!
Cheers, Gary.
