"For more practice with our barre chords let's use, and mixing those up with our open chords let's use another one, six, two, five progression. This one in the key of G major, if you recall from our open chords we had: G major, E minor sixth, A minor as the second, D seventh as five seven, back to G. G, E minor, A minor, D minor seventh. Well this could get boring if we had to play this for a while behind someone. So let's try some new combinations. G major play we can play as a bar chord make it feel a little more full. Now E minor, let's play an octave up. Remember seventh fret of the A string is or E octave, so get used to that note always. Now A minor we can do as an E type barre chord. Now D seventh we can do like this, or we could use our movable shape, often that A type movable seventh chord alternative, is a great way to get five seven back to one. That's a very leading tone quality. So watch! G, E minor, A minor, D seventh alternative seventh. This is just one of a variety of options that you can play around with."
