Barre chord progressions – lesson 1

The Guitar-chord.org lesson series barre chords starts with a simple two chord change. The progression involves the two standard barre shapes of minor chords (see also minor 7th chords under "Alternative chords diagrams"). Among barre chords, these makes a relatively easy start since the string tensions on the middle of the neck is looser than on the first frets.

Progression:
Am | Dm | Am | Dm

1st bar | 2nd bar | 3rd bar | 4th bar

Start the practice by clicking the button below (this will start the backing track and show chord changes).
