Your teaching style is quite natural. It's more important to be able to convey the ideas than to have the exact name for the chords and you're doing that in spades.

@allainmachete Well thank you very much :)

I would love to learn the moon.

@moonjustus you know I have a video on how to play it, right?

[verithomas]

Excellent, thanks for this. I was having trouble finding the third chord of the chorus (I thought he was playing some strange A# chord, but yours makes sense) Only other song Ive seen that G used was in "Exit Music(for a film)" by Radiohead. And I certainly DO NOT mean to pick, but it looks to me like the first D he uses in the bridge, he hits a F# with his thumb (making it "2-X-0-2-3-2") Try it and see if it sounds right to you....

@moonjustus I'll have it up soon enough

Red Chord!!!

[squtternutbosh77]

To be a little more exact, the Gm is actually a Gm6

As for the F. Its actually called a Fmaj9

[tallie7487]

It certainly is. I've learned so much since putting up these videos and all different ways and positions for playing the same chord, and this is just a situation kind of like that that I didn't realize. Thank you very much :)

weird G is a G minor. Check out KT tunstall she plays it the same way in most of her songs
