Chailove is an idiot

[neo4reals]

Wow so many chords, good voice leading too

[plea4sant]

How do you get the second chord to be Dm6? Those notes (G,D & F) actually make up a G7. The sixth note in a D scale is B.

In your chord you play the D (root) and F (minor third) but you play them with a G which then makes your relative D note into a fifth and your relative F note into a (flattened) seventh.

If you played a D minor chord but left the B string open as opposed to the G string as you suggest, This would indeed be a Dm6.

@chailove19 Asshole

[EthanJones08]

wow at the cords.

[chailove19]

hey hey dude, this song isn't that easy to play.... if you can't pull the right sounds out of the chords she's given you then you need to go back to the basics....good luck :)

[namreg944]

this sounds like shit, every other chord sounds wrong, and thanks for not explaining anything
