"Hi, I'm Mike Lais and on behalf of Expert Village this is Piano Chord Voicings. So a one, six, two, five, second inversion. This is just another that you can play this chord progression in a different positioning of the keyboard, but we're going to stay in the key of G and we're going to go through it once here. We're going to go one, six, two, five. Okay? So that was all inversions there. We're going to do a second inversion one chord. Again we're in the key of G. I'm just going to go up to the root position six chord and then I'll go up to a second inversion two chord and then I'll go up to a first inversion five chord. Okay? That's just how we're going to keep it all stationary right there. There's another way if you wanted to do it we could do one second inversion, then we can do a root position six. We can drop this down so that we're in the first inversion and then to a root five and that brings us right back. But, again you're probably going to find it more comforting and it's probably going to sound a little bit smoother to you if you went second inversion one chord, root position six chord, second inversion two chord, first inversion five chord. There you have it. That's a one, six, two, five second inversion."
