Tough one now is the F6. Dmaj7 is a blast!

And if you want to play a B, get a capo on the 2nd fret and play an A shape.

True. That's why I stick to the A D E chords with the occasional F#m thrown in like in the "Stand By Me" song. That chord gives me fits as I can never play it with a clean tone. Guess I need to work on my forearm strength.

maybe the neck's too wide or the action is too high. But you shouldn't limit yourself to a few chord shapes.

Hello - first post here. I am trying to play the song "It's Too Late" by Carole King. I have transposed it to Em7, a 4th down I think. I have most all the chords but can't quite seem to get the 1st 6 chords of the instrumental, mostly "do-do-doo" vocals.  the chords for the sax solo and the guitar are the same as the first two verse chords. If anyone knows them in the original key that's fine I can tranpose them down.

I think they have been written as : Gm7 - Cmaj7 - D7sus - D7 - Fmaj7 - cmaj7 but I don't think those are correct.
thanks in advance
