See the “Fingered Chord Chart” on page A-9 for details on playing chords with other roots.

*1: Inverted fingerings cannot be used. The lowest note is the root.

*2: The same chord can be played without pressing the 5th G.

❚NOTE

•Except for the chords specified in note*1above, inverted finger- ings (i.e. playing E-G-C or G-C-E instead of C-E-G) will pro- duce the same chords as the standard fingering.

•Except for the exception specified in note*2above, all of the keys that make up a chord must be pressed. Failure to press even a single key will not play the desired FINGERED chord.
