We do it in E for even more complex sound

well all this heated up conversation about whether or not to play a certain song in E or D or whatnot. Its very easily transposed. Some songs just sound right in a certain key, due to the progression of sound between the chords. The transition from B to C#m (key of E) sounds where B is lower in terms of frets so when you raise it up to a C#m, it sounds higher. The transition between the two chords are from low, to high. However in the key of G, to play the same variance you would use the two chords: D to Em. But it changes because the D in fact sounds higher opposed to the Em since D is played using primarily the 4 high strings. So do you kinda follow up when i say theres differences? Some songs sound 'right' played in that certain key. But heres some info just for helping purposes, i hope you can make some use of them! =)

in the Key of G: G, D, Em, C
in the Key of E: E, B, C#m, A

So if a song uses G, D, Em, C (i.e "blessed be your name" by Matt Redman"), in the Key of E, those same string of chords can be translated in: E, B, C#m, A.

hmm you mightve lost me for a moment there, its kinda hard writing this down. Would be much easier if i just sat next to yah guitar and played with you =).

no heat here.

We play Here I Am To Worship in D, too.

Our version uses A, D, G, Em and Asus.
