Hey guys, in this guitar lesson, I am going to show you this excellent concept that I call “Interval Voicing.” In this approach, we transform chords by changing or adding a note within the chord.

Here’s how this approach works.

• Step 1. Figure out the chord progression and key.
• Step 2. Write down the notes of the key. If you are in G major, write down the G major scale. These are the notes you can add to change the internal voicing.
• Step 3. Add one of the notes from the scale to the chords.

As you will see in the video, almost any note from the scale works. However, you should always use (and trust) your ears as not all the notes work great.

I recommend that you learn this chord progression before writing it down again with a different internal voicing of your choice. You don’t have to play the chords with the same rhythm as long as you work on a different internal voicing. Once you have it, work on the rhythm and make it more interesting.
