Two weeks ago I recoded this lovely song by Iris Dement using 1st position D,G and A chords to assist a client of mine.
I play a lot of songs in D but I "choose" to play in 2nd position with a capo using C, F, and G chord shapes. like this.
Neither is wrong - personal choice, and I use my beloved "thumb over" F shape.
It seems tat I get most of my new songs from my one-to-one Zoom clients, now so my thanks to Steve for this one. I'll add it to my repertoire. If you would like me to mentor you with singing and playing, lease contact me at [email protected]. Thanks for watching.
