Well, the G chord can be somewhat difficult to learn because there are lots
of open strings in the middle, but it comes in an easy version: skip the two 
deep strings (the E and A), but keep pressing the high E string in third fret.
Here follows a few samples on how to play the G chord.

E ||---|---|-3-|
H ||---|---|---|
G ||---|---|---|
D ||---|---|---|
A ||---|-1-|---|
E ||---|---|-2-|


E ||---|---|-3-|
H ||---|---|---|
G ||---|---|---|
D ||---|---|---|
X ||---|---|---|
X ||---|---|---|


X ||---|---|---|
H ||---|---|---|
G ||---|---|---|  Actually this is a G chord too...
D ||---|---|---|
X ||---|---|---|
X ||---|---|---|


Hope this helps.

	Instead of looking in the Bettencourt directory, get the tab from
the directory Extreme. This is where I found the tab just couple of days
ago. Also, check the INDEX at nevada. Hope you have better luck finger-

Well, the standard G chord everyone is taught at the beginning is this:

E 3 3
B 0
G 0
D 0
A 2 1
E 3 2

This first letter is the string, the first number is the fret and the second 
number is which finger you play that fret with (0's indicate open strings).
Of course, there are many, many other G chords that can be played on the 
guitar, and some sound quite different from others. Using this same notation, 
here are some other G chords which you can decide for yourself whether they are 
"pleasing" to your ear. :)

E 3 2 | E 3 4 | E 7 2 | E X    | E 3 1
B 0   | B 3 3 | B 8 3 | B 12 3 | B 3 1
G 0   | G 0   | G 7 1 | G 12 3 | G 4 2
D 0   | D 0   | D 9 4 | D 12 3 | D 5 4
A X   | A 2 1 | A X   | A 10 1 | A 5 3
E 3 T | E 3 2 | E X   | E X    | E 3 1

These 5 chords are all played differently, though some sound very similar. The 
"T" above indicates that you use your thumb to play this fret. An "X" indicates 
you either don't play, or mute this string when strumming the chord. The last 2 
chords require that you bar the 12th and 3rd frets respectively with the finger 
shown. All chords without open strings (i.e. the last 3) can be moved up and 
down the neck to play chords other than G. Hope this answers the question! :)

Derek, the 2 proper fingering of an open G chord are:

1)                       2) 
E  - - 3 - - -              - - 2 - - - 
A  - 2 - - - -              - 1 - - - -
D  - - - - - -              - - - - - -
G  - - - - - -              - - - - - -
B  - - - - - -              - - - - - -
E  - - 4 - - -              - - 3 - - -

The first one is recommended! it makes your first finger available
for other notes. Your problem, as well as the solution (i.e., practice)
are very common.
Your next challege would be the barre chords where your first finger 
presses against more than one fret (up to 6). For example you'd find
that the (barre) F chord is nearly impossible but surprise surprise
after some practice you'd master it.

A tip: some chords share the same notes with the same fingering, making
the chord changes from one to an other much easier (for example Am and C).
Just last month I noticed that the F and C chords share the same fingering
of the C note on the A-string making the change from C to F (and F to C)
very easy since the third finger remanins unchanged giving a good reference
point.

By the way, songs of Neil Young would be an excellent exercise in G
chords...  His "Decade" Album is a good start. Cheers,  --ameen.

I'm rather new to this group so I was wondering what this CHORD PRO
thing is that every one talks about.  Also, can someone tell me if
this group is archived somewhere, at least where the tabs/chords/lyrics
are stored?  Is there also a FAQ there?  Email to kompella@cs.ucsd.edu.
Thanks.

The fingering given for the G major chord is correct, but it is much
easier to make transitions from D to G (which you do quite often due to
D being the Major Fifth of G) if you use your pinkie on the high E string,
your ring finger on 3rd fret low e string, and your middle finger on
second fret a string.

Comments?

Cheers,

C
