Subject: Mistery chords
I have always been a guitar idiot savant.More idiot than savant,really.My total inabilty to play a barré (don't tell me I just need practice...I practiced and practiced...I can't.It would be easier for me to sing in a deep bass voice while walking on my hands :))prevents me from being a good guitar player I guess...I have always been happy to stick to my 12 chords or little more.There's so much you can do with 12 chords.But...I don't want to limit myself if ain't physical inability that stops me,so lately I started to play different chords,that sound very well but I don't know how to call 'em.Maybe for you is all very simple and known,but I'm ignorant and need some advice. I tell you how I put my hands..and maybe you can help me... 1)This one is easy,and it works like a Bm substitute,so maybe is some kind of B-ish chord.It's simply a Em chord with the middle finger moved down to the G string. 2)now...this sounds complicated...I put a capo to the 3rd fret,then do a C maj chord BUT with the index up to the G string

tnx in advance.
