Topic: the little numbers next to chords?!!?
On the list of chords some chords have a little number next to them. Does this mean go to that number fret? thanks <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_confused.gif" border=0 alt="Confused">
Re: the little numbers next to chords?!!?
A normal chord with no number next to it has the 1st 3rd and 5th notes of the scale to which it relates. A number next to the chord indicates that you play that number note of the scale too. e.g. a C7 has the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th notes of the C major scale in it. The C chord only has the 1st, 3rd and 5th.

Yes. The number corresponds to the fret.
Is anything really made up of zeros and ones??
