Lefty Guy Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I just discovered Chatham County Line & love their music. I'm trying to get the chords down for one of their songs - "The Carolinian" - & have most of it sorted. The verse is easy & 1st chorus also but for the 2nd & 3rd chorus there's a decending trio of chords following the straight D chord that finished the 1st chorus that have got me stumped. Any of you good at recognising chord shapes/progressions from youtube? Here's the link, the progression I'm stuck on is between 2.02 & 2.06 roughly. Thanks for your help! Chord shapes (with capo on 2) verse D G D D G A G D A D Bm G A D chorus D A G A D D A G A D then 2nd time around it goes into that progression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneS Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 the 3-chord run looks like this: D D with C# on the 5th string/4th fret (I don't know the chord name) Bm After the D with C#, it might be an F#m then a quick change to Em, then touching A (6th string/2nd fet) before landing again on the G?...

If I understand you correctly, you've written the chords in the key you think its written in? CCL's guitarist is playing it with capo on 2 starting with a "D" shape - so why do you have minor chords rather than major ones? Sorry to ask but I'm something of an amateur at this.

ol fred Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Three versions here from a app that I have. Can transpose if you like. I didn't watch the vid, just converted to MP3 and fed it to the app. Take a look at the capo conversion chart here: http://www.chordie.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=15164 Fred, thx for your help.

Still looks like his chord hand makes it to an F#m in the middle of that change--but it's too quick for my eye/ear to catch. For now anyway-- I might "get it" when I"m not looking/thinking about it!

pschaafs Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 So Fred, what is the app you have for identifying chords? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bol316 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Ok 1 comment. That song could be 100 times better by just removing or turning that banjo down a bit. It dominates the song. I would say just remove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
