Today began my jazz era. I'm even looking into skimmer hats. It started with these 4 chords and now my fingers are flying.

God only knows

Capo 2nd fret


0232 The world could show

12020 Nothing to me

0232 So what good would

4x443x Living do me

Resolve on G for chorus

Mess with those and think about the melody and it kind of all comes together. I've been struggling to even approach jazz for decades. Now I'm setting up loops and really flying over the melodies and in between notes. Now I have to work on eliminating mistakes. I never thought jazz was in the cards but I think i'm gonna ride this out for a while.

That’s not jazz.

Start with bossa nova chords to ease into the harder stuff

Man that looks like another planet. You can see how I favored these 2 chords for being common (a7 and bm) yet with a weird bass note. Very accessible.

Bossa chords are the real shit. SO many inversions. Jobim was a genius, it's a rabbit hole well worth exploring. If you can play 'Corcovado' on guitar, every chick will worship you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdSyTDp0Ssg

The difference between a rock and a jazz guitarist? A rock guitarist plays 3 chords to thousands of people, a jazz guitarist plays thousands of chords to 3 people.
