D/F#

Now since we are starting to understand the notes on the guitar lets start putting extra notes on top of a normally playd chord... lets take a D, looks like:

(1)e-------2------
(2)B-------3------
(3)G------2-------
(4)D--------------
(5)A--------------
(6)E--------------

OK... now lets ad an F# in that! like this:

(1)e-------2------
(2)B-------3------
(3)G------2-------
(4)D--------------
(5)A--------------
(6)E-------2------

you say this chord like, D with an F sharp, D/F#!!!

Looks like THIS!!!

There are two ways of doing this chord... first i sudjest learning to rap your thumb around to the F# and do it that way like in the picture above... or you can do it like this tab:

(1)e-------2------
(2)B-------3------
(3)G------2-------
(4)D--------------
(5)A--------------
(6)E-------2------

this way looks like:

and this way looks like this... i don't like this one to much b/c it kinda tangle your fingers around alot... the lesser fingers you have on the neck the better.

This chord is a great chord to play before a G chord... try it out and see wat you think! and notice the bass notes... see how you progress from F# to G... then mabey you could go to an Am or C... its all up to you but you should start visualizing the roots progress wile you play guitar... thats key!!!
