“Worried Man Blues” Key of G, Part 1: Scales, Chords, and Melody
In this video, Lauren starts by showing you how to play the G major scale in two octaves and how to spell the I, IV, and V chords in the key of G: the G chord (I) is GBD, the C chord (IV) is CEG, the D chord (V) is DF#A. The melody in the lower octave of this key will feel familiar to you: it’s the same hand shape you used in the upper octave for the key of D. Lauren continues to remind you of your options for creating solo variations by including pickups, blues notes, and double stops.
