If you strum the chord G for an hour and solo a scale in G along to it, its obviously gona fit in! But no song ever stays with one chord for that long, long enough to solo over it.
This is where i'm stuck, and where no ones been able to help!!!

Take a song that goes G5 for 2 seconds, D5 for 2 seconds then C5 for two seconds! Im hoping this is in the key of G! I know you can aim notes, i mean while the G5 chord is sounded you also hit a single note G so make it fit in.
Thats all very well if those 3 chords are played close together. But imagine if you had a song, a crap song probably, that strummed G for a minute, D for a minute, then C for a minute. Wouldnt you be outa key most on the time if you played the same G scale over all of it?
So can you talk about scales having different keys? Like play the G scale lower down the guitar and then move and play the same G scale but part thats a higher pitch as the chords also go up?
