What's up guys Matt here with Acoustic Selection.
Hope you're all doing well.
Just got back from New York the country boy and me
I don't know if I'm totally feeling that I feel like I walked a [G] thousand miles
_ Just see a lot of big buildings, but I met some good people up there.
[E] So New York's a great place
I'm not knocking the New Yorkers with this video
I thought I would teach how to play the easy way to play a B chord and a B minor
It's like lately I get more [G] and more notes about how do you play a B?
How do you play a B minor?
Do you have any suggestions that kind of thing?
_ If you watch many of my videos [Em] most of the songs I teach have _
_ Two sets of chords either my first [G] four easy chords, which is G C E minor D
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [Em] _ So [D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
that's _ _ _ _ _ _ _ just G C E minor D now if you want to raise that up or lower [E] to whatever you play it
you play E A _ C sharp minor and B
Which I call the track chords.
So all my videos have two sets of chords for the most part
You have the track chords, which is E A
C sharp minor and B or play this way
_ C sharp minor B A
That's going up and down the track
_ So let's first go over if you play it that way
How to play a B chord.
This is the easiest way
I know to play a B chord is you play this open called open voicing of chords
so you'd play take your ring finger and pinky finger _ _ and
What you would do is
Play the fourth fret two middle strings
_ Right there and then you take your first finger and play the fifth string second fret _ _ _ and you're gonna strum all six
[B] _
So middle fingers not [Em] playing anything.
So _ _
The fourth and third string a second of the fourth fret _ and the fifth string of the second fret _
_ [B] and
strum all six
[E] _ _ _
That's gonna be your B chord.
So it's a
_ _ C sharp minor and B. _
So you slide that up two frets C sharp minor B _
_ _ _ [A] _ [C#m] _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ That's gonna be a B it's gonna sound great with about any song you play so rather than having to learn the bar chords
And then all this if you do that, _ _ that's a B
_ And that's a B.
It's gonna [E] sound the same
[F#] Don't [B] worry about barring those you can [Em] leave those open and you're strumming all six.
There's your [E] B chord.
It's a called a power [C#m] chord
[E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Then with a B minor [N] what you're gonna do
I showed this tip often my other videos is you're gonna play a minor which is the second string first fret _ and
With with your middle finger and ring finger
You're gonna play the fourth and third string
_ _ [Am] That's a minor and moved up two frets one two
_ [Bm] It's [E] gonna be your [Bm] B chord and _ _ I play the bottom four strings
_ so if I have a [Em] song _ [D]
a
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ [G] _ _ [N] Lot of times the songs I play they have a B [G] minor will be a G
[D] _ _ Hey, I [G] mean G [D] _ the
_ [Bm] _ B [A] minor a
_ [G] _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [G] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
So [Em] there's your B and B minor chord you're gonna do a
_ B or an open voicing way and a B minor [Am] just like an a [A] minor slid down two fret
[Bm] _ _ [A] Hope this helps you guys.
Have a great day and God bless you
