Guitar chord forum - chordie → Acoustic → E5no3 chord??????????
Hi All!!!!
First of all what is the E5no3 chord.
Second how do I transpose it from the key of C to key of D?
Is that possible?
Btw, the song is Grace Like Rain by Todd Agnew.
Keep Rockin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey z, maybe this will help www.looknohands.com/chordhouse Very helpful site and tons of charts lots of luck
How do you transpose it? Easy. Put a capo on the second fret and play everything exactly the same while pretending that the capo is the nut.
Or you could put in an F5no3 chord. Which I am supposing is equally impossible to an E5no3 chord. What confuses me is the 5 no 3. What the heck is a chord if not based on 1,3,5? 5 is already in the chord, and no 3 in a chord makes it a duad or some other weird and obscure musical term I'd think. E5no3 would just be E and the fifth, which is ....B (I think) without an A (the third). I do that all the time on bass - just playing the root and fifth, but not on guitar.
With an F base it would be F and the fifth of F, which is .... um..... no idea. Let's see, maybe C? I'm going with C. F and C. Not much of a chord. OH WAIT! That's a power chord on guitar!
I think that's meant to be a power chord based on E. Finger your usual E chord and just play the fifth and sixth strings.
Whew. I hope that's right.
Russell or Jerome will be along. They live for questions like this. Or someone competent anyway.

Huh????
Zurf, you must still be in a state of confusion from Russell's post on your Am7/G.
Is a power chord a regular chord? so it can be transposed?
Is this right:
Key of C
Dm E5no3 F G F G A G Bb
Key of D
Em F# G A G A B A C
Makes no diff anyhow, I can't play it either way.

I have no idea if that's right. I'm of the "if it sounds good, do it" school. I was using cross-picking on a song for six months before I even knew it had a name. It just sounded cool (to me) on the song, so I did it. For power chords I think you just play the low E (6) and the A (5) strings in any shape that makes those chords and includes those strings.

an altered chord,Transposed to C it could be C G A B or 1 5 6 7 or x322Ox 
What the heck is a chord if not based on 1,3,5?
talk about a state of confusiion

All I know is that if Russell understands this chord structuring stuff that there's no way in heck I'm going to take him on in chess. I can see it now...
Russell: "That's your opening move?"
Zurf: "Yep."
Russell: "You sure? I'll let you change if you want."
Zurf: "I'm sure."
Russell: "Checkmate."

Grace like Rain is one of Todd Agnews best songs and i play it capoed on the 2nd fret transposed in the key of G = EM, C, G, D with an altered Dmaj2, Dmaj4 in the second and fourth line of each verse. Then on the chorus an improvised augmented D before the solo which is the same as the verses. I know it's not the way it's recorded but it sounds good to me.
Funny stuff Zurf its really simple a chord needs three notes anything else is an interval and it takes a least 3 moves to checkmate
