Cry me a River Guitar Chords Measures 5 & 6

This lesson will teach you how to play the chords in measures 5 & 6 of Cry me a River. To listen to the Chord Tab for the whole song go to the CHORDS TAB video. You can learn the melody for measures 5 & 6 of the tune in the MELODY Measures 5 & 6 page. If you’ve already learned the melody and the chords for measures 3 & 4 of the tune, why not try the solo guitar COMBINED ARRANGEMENT Measures 5 & 6 which combines the melody of the tune with notes from the supporting chords.

Video Script:

to play an Em chord, place your

2nd finger, on the 5th string, 2nd fret

and the 3rd finger, on the 4th string, 2nd fret

with the right hand

“p” plays the 6th string

“i” plays the 3rd string

“m” plays the 2nd string

“a” plays the 1st string

You can find the Chord Tab on the bottom of the  video screen
