This is the sixth lesson in my latest YouTube series called "Chord Melody Made Simple."

Each lesson in this series focuses on ONE specific, bite-sized step of how to fully understand the chord melody process, with explicit practice items clearly defined.

In this lesson, you'll learn the inversions of every triad in the key of C within the open position.

If you think of the arpeggios as melodies, then this is already chord melody!

We're simply harmonizing the arpeggio notes of every chord with a chord shape. Pretty cool. :)

Thanks for watching.

Your guitar coach and practice buddy,
