Beginners: If the weird chord names look strange, you can play the regular base chord and it sounds
just fine (Em instead of Em7, C instead of Cadd9, etc.). But I play it this way and I think it's easier.
The G/F# chord is like a G chord but play the low E-string on the second fret instead of the third.
I use it to "walk down" from the G to Em chord.
