How To Play Katy Perry 'ET' On Guitar

4 Chords Em - C - G - D

It's in the key of E minor - which is in the key of G, but it's minor chord

Have fun with it. Alternate Pick throughout if you want, slow it down, throw in some chord substitutions that I've been showing you these past few weeks if you want :)

Hey ive got a question walt. Lets play you the chords (im playing power chords but open works too.) E, G, C, D. I dont know what key that is. I guess key of E since it starts there. Now what happens if you change the key to any other note and I play the same 4 chords, is anything different?

what im trying to ask is, what do keys means and what do they do?

[waltribeiro]

@caneut you're half right. but the key is Eminor, not Emajor. That's the problem with power chords - they dont' inclue the 3rd interval in them

[gwizzle1]

so am I correct in assuming this is the key of G Major

[waltribeiro]

@gwizzle1 it's E minor. Same as G Major, but in it's minor key

@caneut the only way you can play the 4 chords in a different key is if you play 4 different chords. i'm confused. shoot a video and show me!

[caneut]

@waltribeiro ok so if I play those 4 chords, and change the key to something else, am I changing the notes? what happens if I play the same thing in a different key?
