This lesson will teach you how to play the chords in measures 17 & 18 of Over the Rainbow. To listen to the Chord Tab for the whole song go to the CHORDS TAB video. You can learn the melody for measures 17 & 18 of the tune in the MELODY Measures 17 & 18 page. If you’ve already learned the melody and the chords for measures 17 & 18 of the tune, why not try the COMBINED ARRANGEMENT Measures 17 & 18 which combines the melody of the tune with notes from the supporting chords.

Video Script:

C chord

the first chord in this guitar song is the C chord we have already learned

with the right hand

“p” plays the 5th string

“i” plays the 3rd string

“m” plays the 2nd string

“a” plays the 1st string

Dm chord

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

the second chord is Dm, play as before

with the right hand

“p” plays the 4th string

“i” plays the 3rd string

“m” plays the 2nd string

“a” plays the 1st string

C Dm

both chords together sound like this

The arrangement of the chords in this lesson could easily sit with the title “Jazz Chords Lesson” or “Classical Guitar Lesson” and be interesting to players of both genres.
