Hey man! thanks for the video. I have a quick question... What would this chord be? e|---x--- B|---7--- G|---7--- D|---5--- A|---7--- E|---x--- ChatGPT keeps saying it is a Dmaj7 as well, but I don't see it included in this video. I am writing a song that goes from that chord, into: e|---0--- B|---7--- G|---6--- D|---7--- A|---5--- E|---5--- And I'm trying to find variations for that. Am I just playing the same chord? cause it sounds different when I change obviously and am not able to tell yet.
Hey, the first chord (E G D F#) can be interpreted as Em9. E is the root, G is the minor 3rd, D is the 7th, and F# is the 9th. The second chord could be interpreted as Dmaj9/A (A = 5th, D = root, A = 5th, C# = major 7th, F# = major 3rd, E = major 9th). However, if the Em9 precedes this chord, I would name it as an A6 with the 11th (A is the root, D is the 11th, A is the root, C# is the major 3rd, F# is the 6th, E is the 5th). This way, you play a i-IV connection, which is very likely-but we need more context to be sure about that.... .Hope this helps. Good luck with your song writing! (Watch out! ChatGPT is extremely unreliable when it comes to music theory or guitar playing questions...)
