Thought it's worth noting again as it's not part of the 'standard' chord progression.First posted here

but really belongs here.
--life...sweeter for this
--Fm----------Ab+-----Ab
e--4-----------4-------4---
b--6-----------5-------4---
g--5-----------5-------5---
d--6-----------6-------6---
a--------------------------
E--------------------------
I'd never noticed the Ab+ chord. (if that's what it's called - might be Ab+5 as it's adding the #5th)
Pretty cool. Similar to the Dear Prudence progression, less the 7th chord
Actually, "Ab+5" would mean the same thing as Ab+. The raised 5 is what gives a chord an Augmented quality.
And I think you are correct-...ish. I kind of reverse-engineered how I play it (in the 1st-fr position) and found that on the last beat of the Fm measure I do drop the root(but keep an F on top), which creates (I believe?)an Fm/Maj7 chord #7-E,3-Ab,5-C,1-F; which, if you remove the root entirely and have the maj7 on top, could also be called an Ab+ 1-Ab,3-C,#5-E. I think Fmin/Maj7 might be the more conventional way of seeing it. werxferme!Users browsing this forum: No registered users and 2 guests
