Chord library questions
What do the chord diagrams show?
Each diagram is the guitar neck seen face on, with the thick low E string on the left. Dots show where to press, the numbers in them say which finger to use, an O above a string means play it open, and an X means don't play it. A number beside the diagram is the fret where the shape starts.
How do I read a chord symbol like Am7 or Gsus4?
The capital letter is the root note. What follows describes the quality: nothing means major, m means minor, 7 adds a flattened seventh, maj7 adds a natural seventh, sus means the third is replaced by a second or fourth, and dim and aug mean diminished and augmented.
Are the chords free?
Yes. Every chord, every shape and the left-handed view are free, with no account and nothing to download.
Can I see left-handed chord diagrams?
Yes. On any chord page, tap Left-handed to flip the diagrams. The setting is remembered.
