The G Minor is a beautiful chord played on the guitar. It is somewhat similiar to the F minor chord, which is very difficult to play and can actually be more difficult than the F minor. For beginners, it is not suggested that you try to learn the chord until you are fairly familiar with the other chords and your finger strength is strong.

The G minor chord is played with your index finger and pinky finger. The index finger is also called the first finger and the pinky finger is also the fourth finger. The guitar has five strings and frets- which are the metal lines on the guitar bar. The strings and frets are used by the fingers to make the chords.

To make the G minor chord you will use your index finger, or your first finger and cover it over the first, second and thrid strings on the third fret. Next, take your pinky finger or your fourth finger and cover it on the fourth string, fifth fret. Starting at the fifth string, play all the strings below in a quick succession.

This is a very difficult chord to play. Make sure you finger strength is strong before setting out on playing the chord. Also, start with just the index finger and then introduce the pinky- this will help you to build your stamina.
