How to find any chord

Our interactive chord chart is the perfect tool for learning a wide variety of guitar and string instrument chords. Use it to find chords, understand finger positioning, and discover the notes and intervals that make each chord unique.

Finding a specific guitar chord

  • The root note appears in the top-left corner, with "C" as the default. Change it by clicking and selecting a new root note from the menu.

  • Chord type (such as major or minor) is in the top-right corner. Click to choose a different chord type.

Understanding the chord chart

Once you've set the root and type, the chart displays the chord voicing. 

  • Numbered dots - Finger placement 

    • The dots across the frets tell you where your fingers go with each dot numbered to correspond with your fingers

      1 = Index finger

      2 = Middle finger

      3 = Ring finger

      4 = Little finger

      T = Thumb

  • ‘𝝬’ / ‘O’ - Mute / Play strings 

    • Empty circles above zero fret indicate open strings, and crosses tell you which strings to avoid playing.

Tips for practicing guitar chords

  • Start slowly: Focus on accuracy before speed.

  • Less hand watching: Rely on touch, not sight, for chord placement.

  • Lighter strings: Choose thinner strings for easier playability.

  • Correct posture: Good form is key for comfortable playing.

  • Use a metronome: Helps train your rhythm and timing.

  • Palm muting: Use it to add rhythm and texture.

  • Learn barre chords: Essential for expanding your sound.

  • Hand exercises: Improve strength and flexibility.

  • Build calluses: They minimize pain and enhance sound clarity.
