This is the 3rd session on Guitar Triad Chords in the key of C Major. In this session we will be working with the 3rd chord in the key of C Major,
the E Minor chord.
I'll be displaying a guitar tablature using the C Major triad chord & E Minor triad chord. The ryhthm and chord pattern are going to stay the same, will just be changing where we play the 2
triad chords on the guitar. This will help you get familiar with playing these triad chords in there different positions on the guitar.
Below you will find the chord charts for the E Minor triad chord, showing 3 different positions the chord can be played in, and the 4 different
string sets the chord can be played on in each position. The string sets are as follows:
| 6th-5th-4th strings | 5th-4th-3rd strings | 4th-3rd-2nd strings | 3rd-2nd-1st strings |

Below 4 guitar tablatures are displayed, each tab has the exact same chord and rhythm pattern. The only difference between each guitar tab, is
where the chords are played on the guitar and the octave the chords are played in. This is just a simple rhythm I made up for this practice,
feel free to put your own rhythm to the 2 chords being played in the tablatures. The main objective here is to get familiar with playing
the triad chords in different positions on the guitar.
Listen to each tab on the player
