Movable chords are chords that can be played in different positions on the guitar neck, allowing you to change the key of the chord without changing the finger pattern.

 The most common movable chords include:

  1. Barre chords: These chords involve using your index finger to form a bar across multiple strings and using your remaining fingers to fret other notes. By moving the bar up or down the guitar neck, you can play different chords in different keys.

    For example is F barre chord, which is movable

    F

  2. Power chords: These chords consist of just two notes (the root note and the fifth) and can be moved up and down the neck to play different chords in different keys. Power chords are commonly used in rock and metal music.

    Smells Like Teen Spirit is a easy song you could use power chord to play

    C5

  3. Seventh chords: These chords add a seventh note to the basic triad (root, third, and fifth) and can also be moved up and down the neck to play different chords in different keys.

  4. Suspended chords: These chords replace the third note of the triad with either a second or fourth note, creating a unique sound. Like other movable chords, suspended chords can be played in different positions on the guitar neck to change the key of the chord.

By learning how to play and move these types of chords, you can expand your chord vocabulary and play a wider range of songs in different keys.
