Thanks for watching my friends! Hope you enjoy this video and be sure to comment below and let me hear your feedback about these top 5 chord progressions. Also, more videos coming soon and a new guitar giveaway. e :)
If one plays in key of G, 6m is Em, not Am, as you played around the 5:30 mark. You definitely play an Am, C, G, D progression. That would be a 2m, 4, 1, 5 progression, which also works well.
OK, i just watched this video and on the #4 progression he SAID out loud - 1,4,5,6m. but when he played in and spoke it out loud he played and said: 1,4,6m, 5. And it SOUNDED good. So, which is it?
To save some time - the Chord Progressions: 1) 1 - 5 - 6 - 4 2) 1 - 4 - 5 3) 6 - 4 - 1 - 5 4) 1 - 4 - 5 - 6 5) 1 - 6 - 4 - 5 @YourGuitarSage says the most common keys to learn and memorize would be the C and G scales. Have fun and keep learning my friends 🚀🏆🎶
I've been noodlin since 18 yrs old and over the years have taught myself a little music theory, but now at 64 you just flipped the switch on the lightbulb for me when you mentioned the IV under the I. I'm happy that I found you and am now a subscriber. Thank you!
Not spending too much time looking through all the comments, but Am is the minor second of G. You played Am C G D which is also quite popular but I think you meant Em C G D which is imo the most popular chord progression starting on a minor chord.
I was going to make the same comment, but decided to look around first. I'm surprised Erich didn't post a reply back when this video first came out and you commented. He is amazingly responsive when it comes to students comments and questions on the UGS website.
Reminds me of those old web sites where the front page was 50 feet long with the "But Wait!" and "There's More!" and "Hurry, Limited time Offer!" - this guy is a waffler
Greatest guitar lesson. All you really need is this and power chords. I started learning at 8. Quit. Restarted after 12 years. Picked up more in a week watching YourGuitarSage then a year back then. You just won another subscriber
Great video, helped me through a little rut I've been in! Only complaint is on number is on progression 2 you said it was the iv - IV - I - V in G but played a ii - IV - V - I instead, still a lovely chord progression!
Ah this is fantastic!!! been doing 1 4 5 forever got boring , but this is a big WOW been looking in the wrong places for learning . this is inspiring for Me to continue playing more. Thank You very very much.
I liked the way this guy did chord progressions, although my favorite is a 1,5,4 in EMajor he has explained the voicing in a song . Anybody can learn chords, notes and music theory and depending on the person memorizing chords in g,c,d,e,f,a,b or thinking about it like g a minor bminor c,d we all learn differently but this guy went over chord progressions that we might hear everyday on the radio or internet.
Great lesson. Something I wish I learned even as a beginner. But maybe i just wasn't ready to conceptualize how to use it. Appreciate how well you instruct your online users.
So this what my friend was talkin about. He said every song has the same chord progression and always there's gonna be a minor chords for a reason. He didn't quite explain it well and at the time didn't get it. But now the way you said it with detail explains a lot!! Thanks Erich you're the best!
Jonathan, not every song has the same chord progression for sure. Not every song has a minor chord, for sure! However, many songs do have very similar patterns.
Ok, for someone coming back to playing after 20+ years and I only learned by sitting across from my dad and following him on the neck. Needless to say I wasn't a really good player but all he played was 50's-60's stuff so it was pretty easy to follow. He never taught me really anything but chords. We still had a great time playing together and after awhile I was right with him and it sounded pretty good. So you have basically you made my head hurt and showed me how much real work I am going to have to put in to be a basic player. Thanks for the invitation to the free course. I will definitely be diving in head first.
Rich Rinehart I’m in somewhat the same boat as you, as I started playing as a teenager, self taught and with friends, just played cords. Now I want to learn a bit of theory just to make sense of it all but also it will show how you can add variety and spice to your playing.
Justin guitar is a great teacher and his website and all lessons are free. Lots of videos on UA-cam also, but on his website everything is organized. Have a great time playing!
@@glorioskiola Thanks G L O R I A Gloria Sorry I just couldn't resist. I bet you've only heard that about 1 million times. I just got my 12 string back from my guitar guy and I am basically right now just working on getting my fingers back in shape. Two of my cousins play and my goal is to be able to play with them in the near future. When I was a kid our family Christmas party for my grandparents always turned into a jam session with my dad on 12 stringer, uncle on mandolin, uncle on 6 stringer and one of my aunts on squeeze box (she was incredible). When I was a kid almost all of my family spent the summers at a campground so every other weekend was spent watching my dad lead whomever had come out to play. It was pretty incredible. Here is a small piece of history. My dad had a band in the 60's and early 70's called the Peacemakers. They played all over Michigan and even did some shows in Chicago. Del Shannon was my dads drummer and he wrote the song "Runaway" with Del and they played it in the band before Del went to Nashville with a local legend named Rem Wall and the rest is history. Rem wanted my dad to go but he disliked the music industry and quit the band because he had to learn songs he didn't like. LOL
Rich, thank you for the kind words. Yes, lots to know but just like life, one step at a time. www.yourguitarsage.com/30 is where I teach all this stuff step-by-step. That course is free. 🤗
@@yourguitarsage In hindsight I wish I would have continued to play after my father passed away. He was terminally ill for about 3 years and I spent the last 2 with him playing at least 4 nights a week. I went over on Monday night and just the two of us played from 7:00 to about 2:30 am. I put the guitars up and luckily said, "I love ya, see you later on today" and I went home to get some sleep. A family friend stopped by to see him at about 8 am and he had passed sitting at the kitchen table, just where I had left him. So I couldn't even get my 12 string that was his for years, my heirloom piece out of the case without losing it. It's been 21 years and I still get a little rush of emotion when I pick it up. The hole in my soul will never ever heal. I really miss watching him rocking back and forth with his eyes closed singing his ass off. Sometimes he would have his eyes closed and he would be searching up and down the neck trying to piece together some song that popped in his head. He would say something like "Hold on, I gotta get this out of my head or it will drive me crazy!"
Em, C, G, F, also used in “square hammer “ by Ghost. If you have never listened to Square Hammer “live in MEXICO “. it will change the way you view music for life, .
The I-V-vi-IV (or its rotated variant starting on vi) is already known as the "Axis progression" as it was popularized by comedy rock band Axis of Awesome that made a mashup of about a hundred songs in 5 minutes.
You mentioned the 1 4 5 progression, but a subtle variation on that is the 1 5 4 progression. Think Knocking on Heavens Door - G D C. Also, during the chorus, you can alternate between 1 5 4 and 1 5 2m progressions: G D C / G D Am.
Great lesson! I just used this progression in rehearsal as a rhythm so my lead guitarist could play over me. So I'm researching now to learn more so I'm even better at it. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL GUITAR! WOW!
Thanks Erich! Always super helpful! Lessons like these are so useful - where learning one thing (chord progession) is really learning many things (multiple songs using the same progression/s). Also really enjoyed your lesson about the minimalistic blues soloing - again, doing your thing of stripping a topic/concept down and focussing on the essentials.
@yourguitarsage. I deleted a previous comment in which you corrected me in a grammar error and 100% right you were. I was very quick to judge with my comment but on reflection after watching the full video you done a great job in explaining what you were teaching. Good work man and apologies for my previous comment, it was one of those days.
Thanks to your kind soul and effort to teach ...You are very convincing with your methodical approach ... Now all is left is practicing knowingly what we are doing and progressing ...
Do these chord progressions work in minor scales? What would the minor scale equivalents be? Like some popular emo, metal, classic rock, EDM, and Hip-Hop chord progressions...
Repetition is key so have some sort of part is the song that has the same notes. Do not have the same words for any part of a song. Just adjust the words to fit into the beat of the song.
In my experience, almost all the great songs have progressions that fall into a few groups. I've been playing since 1964, when I quit the accordion and picked up an electric guitar. The progressions you demo all have thousands of examples.
What is the rule about "I will explain that later". Good video (beautiful sounding strumming) but too much use of the "I will explain that later in the video" teaser technique. Fine to use it once perhaps twice but after a while they start stacking up.
Sir if I am not wrong, in the progration m6-4-1-5 I think wrongly you played Aminor instead of Eminor in the key of G major....... Thank you Sir you are one of my favorite teacher
Excellent.. Simple as it can be.. I know that it can be confusing [and I see the point about people thinking a 6th in a progression might mean say an Em6th but I think that's a bit picky]. Count off the ''Do re mi'' starting anywhere and then figure out what that note is based on the known strings EADGBE.. It has to be in there.. , play that chord and you're good to go.
When first learning open chords and then chord progression, I started hearing hundreds of familiar songs using those patterns. Then I thought "No can't be" but only to find later that the entire "Encyclopedia" to playing songs has just been reduced to a "Stupid-simple notebook". Elvis has left the building!
I have problems in utilizing the chords, specially the barre ones. But due to this formula I have constructed for all the seven scales and find it excellent workout for a beginner like me. But I am not sure the formula works for the other scales than G. If it includes all, It would be a two thumbs up. Bye bye chord problems! Thank you
This is a great help, I haven't found this chord progression on any other video, however I could do with the fingers not moving quite so fast and a close up of the fret would be useful
Waw, this lesson changed the way I look at root notes a big deal because I knew the progressions & the scales but I never thought the 6th is a direct pointer to the minor root etc. In that way of thinking 😁. This makes practicing scales more interesting because you can stop half way on root notes & ring the relative progression chords & try other stuffs rather than being a burden to the neighbours just playing scales up & down like a moron. Thanks a lot 🎩🤘🎸🤙
Oh yeah I’m digging that catchphrase at the end about being kind to all beings I like that good video man this is the first time I’ve seen you I just subscribed
Thank you! I kinda had them in my first upper raw of main chords I’m learning, but you just explained, why they are so important for beginners, which I am!
How is the guitar coming along by this point? Hope you're enjoying the journey. I make videos as well from a beginners perspective. Sending good vibes your way my friend. 🎸🎶
that second one is used in so many, it immediately brought to mind "A walk in the light green",[he was only 19] a song about Aussies in Vietnam, using alternate pickin hammer ons/offs for a bass line:) They are all so over used,lol
Cheers Erich. Handy reminder lesson on chord progressions. I like to stick 10 to 15 minutes of playing 'most common chord progressions ' in my practice routine. This is good little lesson. Thanks again.
Yeah Erich I'm in your full course, already have been through the first 30 lessons in intermediate technique and 365, I know G major C major scale five pentatonic positions and D Dorian scale for Carlos Santana! And I owe it all to your great teaching, and lesson plans, YEA! 😋
Your 6m 4 1 5 example was actually 2m 4 1 5 as you started with A minor but should have started with E minor as Eminor is the minor 6 in the key of G Major.
thanks much, you are the Master, we are the students, sorry i had to drop your program, but i found myself in financial difficulty. The first in a long time. Once i get it straightened out i will be back. i've been playing for years and i still learned things that i knew but didnt know what it was. And now that i am trying to go to blues your program helped me a lot. like i said i will be back thanks so very much Micheal ( dxfarmer )
Is there a chord progression in the key of b, if so what is it? Why didn't you list it, if there isn't can you please explain why there is no key of b?
Very good teacher. I've watched a lot of videos on theory and get so confused. This made a lot of sense, so thank you! I was wondering if certain keys are better suited to deeper voices or higher voices??
at 3:42 you state in the key of G the minor6 is an Em; however at 5:26 you play an Am stating it is the minor6? and again a Am at 5:35? ... then at 6:02 you call out minor6 and play an Em? ... but then at 6:12 you play an Am again???? but then you explain at 8:31 the minor6 in the key of G is Em (which i think is correct) ... can you help me out? am i looking at this vid correctly??
Thanks for watching my friends! Hope you enjoy this video and be sure to comment below and let me hear your feedback about these top 5 chord progressions. Also, more videos coming soon and a new guitar giveaway. e :)

You repeat a 1, 2m, 4, 5 progression at 6:14 or so.
I do enjoy your videos, Eric, but you might want to take a look at those two spots.
Can you do more Videos on Songwriting Please !!! More like that !!!
YourGuitarSage you should teach the original Tennessee Whiskey
I really do appreciate what you do!!
The chord progressions are:
1-5-6m-4
1-4-5
6m-4-1-5
1-4-5-6m
1-6m-4-5
👍
Actually, they are written as:
I-V-vi-IV
I-IV-V
vi-IV-I-V
OK, i just watched this video and on the #4 progression he SAID out loud - 1,4,5,6m.
but when he played in and spoke it out loud he played and said: 1,4,6m, 5. And it SOUNDED good. So, which is it?
First was in order and the second one sounds better for you so use the one you like. :)
@@johntraylor1522 so glad I'm not the only one.. I thought yeah I understand now and then wtf..so ty

👍💪🙏
This is, without a doubt, the very BEST guitar lesson I have ever seen! Thank you so much!
Thank you, Lawrence 🙏
I agree, really made all of the chord progressions really easy to understand. All the information was super easy to digest.

The circle of fifths is very helpful to understand key signatures. Ie C-G-D-A-E etc.
3min into the video. - " Here we go, im one of those who like to get straight to the point" hahaha.
Exactly. Who the hell wants to watch a 22 minute video to get information that could be put into 5 min!?
such a boring video. this guy likes the sound of his own voice.
He stops jabbering and gets to the point at 3:18

Takes me back down memory lane of all the things I learned by myself when I was a teenager

It appears Chord progression 3 & 4 should replace what the video states as 6m with a 2m. But thanks for the info very helpful
Do these chord progressions work in minor scales? What would the minor scale equivalents be? Like some popular emo, metal, classic rock, EDM, and Hip-Hop chord progressions...
Beautiful Gibson Guitar!!!!
I'm stoned, can't someone just post the chords?!! 😝
Hahahaha!
:-)
If you know your major scale do re mi fa so la ti do then apply a number to each one.
Then use 1 4 6m and 5 in any order to create a song.
Repetition is key so have some sort of part is the song that has the same notes. Do not have the same words for any part of a song. Just adjust the words to fit into the beat of the song.
In my experience, almost all the great songs have progressions that fall into a few groups. I've been playing since 1964, when I quit the accordion and picked up an electric guitar. The progressions you demo all have thousands of examples.

What is the rule about "I will explain that later". Good video (beautiful sounding strumming) but too much use of the "I will explain that later in the video" teaser technique. Fine to use it once perhaps twice but after a while they start stacking up.
3:47 why does that sound like the office theme song
thank you Erich. Now I understand the numbering system. Guess I knew it all the time. Just didn't understand it. LMAO
Sir if I am not wrong, in the progration m6-4-1-5 I think wrongly you played Aminor instead of Eminor in the key of G major....... Thank you Sir you are one of my favorite teacher
I might have my friend. In that case it would make it a two minor.
You're a great teacher! Thanks man.
C , Am , F & G ....all the chords for 50's & 60's hits.....but, all these chords come together well, hence why they are played so often...
Excellent.. Simple as it can be.. I know that it can be confusing [and I see the point about people thinking a 6th in a progression might mean say an Em6th but I think that's a bit picky].

5:23 in it is suggested that the Am is the 6th in the key of G. I've always known it to be an Em, could you explain please?
You are correct, Matt. I made a mistake in this video. 👍

Oh yeah I’m digging that catchphrase at the end about being kind to all beings I like that good video man this is the first time I’ve seen you I just subscribed
Thanks, Nate! 🙏🤗👍
beautiful explanations of progressions admirable
Thank you friend!
Thank you! I kinda had them in my first upper raw of main chords I’m learning, but you just explained, why they are so important for beginners, which I am!
How is the guitar coming along by this point? Hope you're enjoying the journey. I make videos as well from a beginners perspective. Sending good vibes your way my friend. 🎸🎶
Thank you so much 🥺❤️ just started learning the guitar and this is so much help!
that second one is used in so many, it immediately brought to mind "A walk in the light green",[he was only 19] a song about Aussies in Vietnam, using alternate pickin hammer ons/offs for a bass line:) They are all so over used,lol
Cheers Erich. Handy reminder lesson on chord progressions. I like to stick 10 to 15 minutes of playing 'most common chord progressions ' in my practice routine. This is good little lesson. Thanks again.
Thank you Phil👍
Yeah Erich I'm in your full course, already have been through the first 30 lessons in intermediate technique and 365, I know G major C major scale five pentatonic positions and D Dorian scale for Carlos Santana! And I owe it all to your great teaching, and lesson plans, YEA! 😋
Thank you Kerry. Your name looked REAL familiar. I knew we had interacted before👊🏻
Your 6m 4 1 5 example was actually 2m 4 1 5 as you started with A minor but should have started with E minor as Eminor is the minor 6 in the key of G Major.
Thanks for the clarification. Didnt think my countin was off
He does make it easy
Thanks man
Thank you master 🙌
🤗🙏
thanks much,
you are the Master, we are the students, sorry i had to drop your program, but i found myself in financial difficulty. The first in a long time. Once i get it straightened out i will be back. i've been playing for years and i still learned things that i knew but didnt know what it was. And now that i am trying to go to blues your program helped me a lot. like i said i will be back thanks so very much

Thanks!
Very well speaking.
Thanks, friend! 🤗🙏
Is there a chord progression in the key of b, if so what is it? Why didn't you list it, if there isn't can you please explain why there is no key of b?
0:00 damn his voice be sounding odd as hell
robandmurr LMAO
Cool man ... thank you.
Happy New Year Erich, family and staff!!! Thank you for all you do!! I appreciate you!
Thank you 🙏More to come this year!
Very good teacher. I've watched a lot of videos on theory and get so confused. This made a lot of sense, so thank you!
I was wondering if certain keys are better suited to deeper voices or higher voices??
Well explained Erich, thank you.
Thank you, Steve www.yourguitarsage.com/30
at 3:42 you state in the key of G the minor6 is an Em; however at 5:26 you play an Am stating it is the minor6? and again a Am at 5:35? ... then at 6:02 you call out minor6 and play an Em? ... but then at 6:12 you play an Am again???? but then you explain at 8:31 the minor6 in the key of G is Em (which i think is correct) ... can you help me out? am i looking at this vid correctly??
matthew dalton Em is the minor 6th in G. Am is the minor 2nd. Good catch.
Why can't I think of that country song 10:54 I've heard it a million times!
Because it’s MANY songs. 😜
