It's understood that you already know basic chords; therefore, only the rare chords are shown in
pictures.
E – Aa d d 9/ E – E
Aadd9/E
This is only two chords, but it's a very simple yet original combination that you can develop further into
longer sequences, see below.
Badd11/E
This is a continuation of the last sequence and as you can see the shape is the same for all three chords.
You can also try to experiment with the following nearby shapes: 0 x 2 1 0 0 , 7 x 7 6 0 0 and
9 x 9 8 0 0 , more suited for finger picking.
0:00 / 0:07
G ( 3 2 0 0 33 ) - C a d d ( X3 2 0 3 3) - G - D ad d 11 - Gadd9 - D add11
Dadd11 X Gadd9 X
E m – A 7/ D – D a dd 9
Em A7/D Dadd9
Observe that the thumb should be used to press down the sixth string in two cases.
B ad d 11 - E - C # m 7 ( X4 6 6 0 0) - B s u s 4 ( X 2 4400) - F#11

Badd11 E F#11
The E and F#7sus4 chords are played in different ways than usual as the pictures indicate. The B chord
should be played as a pseudo-barre 7 9 9 8 0 0 .
D – G /D – A/ D – G /D – D ( s e e t a b)
G/D A/D
From the regular D chord you continue to play on the highest strings with two similar shapes.
0:00 / 0:04
G – C /G – G – E m 9 – D 7 / F # – G
Em9
As you can see is Em9 (more or less) a C major with the root on the fifth fret. This progression is
actually a part of the Bob Dylan song “Boots Of Spanish Leather” and is in the original context played
with capo on the third fret. This progression sound especially great using fingerpicking.
C – G /B – B m b6 a dd 11 – Am – Am /B – C
Bm b6 add11
Bm b6 add11 has a messy chord name and can be a little tricky to play, but your muscle memory will
probably get a hang of it soon.
E ( I I) – B / D # – A/ C #
An alternate E major chord is to prefer here since it use the fifth string for its root note.
D 5 - D m a j 7 ( n o3 ) /C # - D 6 s u s 4 /B
