- Altered chord: D7#5
Smooth Transition: D → D7#5
- On the “I’m gonna stick like glue” line, the move from D to D7#5 is very easy:
- Play the D chord.
- To play D7#5, simply play a D7 chord and add your pinky on the 3rd string, 3rd fret (the note A#).
- The pinkie lands one fret above your 2nd finger on the same string, producing the #5.
- Because the pinkie completely replaces the note your 2nd finger was fretting, leaving the 2nd finger down doesn’t change the sound.
- This makes the transition fast, stable, and perfect for beginners who struggle with full finger repositioning.
- You could even replace D with D7 making the transition from D7 to D#5 even easier.
Play D7, then just add your pinky on the 3rd string like before to play D7#5. 🥳
- D7#5: A dominant 7th chord with a raised 5th
🔹Formula: 1–3–#5–b7
🔹Notes: D–F#–A#–C
