Topic: tableture

can anyone explain how  this works.this is jenny dont be hasty and i know there are bar chords in the song.
e|-5--55--55-55-7-2-22-------|
B|-5--55--55-55-7-2-22-77-77-|
G|-6--66--66-66-8-2-22-77-77-|     x2
D|-7--77--77-77-9-4-44-77-77-|
A|-7--77--77-77-9-4-44-55-55-|
E|-5--55--55-55-7-2-22-------|
does this mean i must bar the fifth fret  and place fingers in  7,7 and 6?
ive also seen a tab before where it was somthing lik
e|
B|-4
G|-6
D|-6
A|-4
E|
How would you play that?tabs confuse me quite abit it would be nice for someone to clear it up

Re: tableture

the first example is the F shape bare chord moved up to A (so finger like an F barre)

the second is barred  at the 4th fret. third finger should be able to hold down the 6th fret

Re: tableture

Johncross21, don't take exception to this post but the when you mention a "F" shaped barre chord what it really is is an "E" shaped barre chord (E shaped movable barre chord)


Shaneluck - the chords would be"

A...A.A...A.A...A.A.F#m...B...F#m.F#m...D.D...D.D...

A = E shaped barre chord root 6th string 5th fret.

B = A shaped barre chord root 5th string 5th fret

F#m = E shape barre chord, root 6th string 3nd fret (do not use middle finger 4th string 3rd fret.

Now if I'm figuring this correctly the Key would be "A" and in a 1 - 4 - 5 progression the chord "B" would be a "2" and also be a minor chord. This is where I get lost.
