Hi Mr. Mitch Wilson,

Thank you for the reply to my question,

Yes, I've learnt all power & barre chords both rooted on 5th and 6th strings. It's funny and enjoyable to play power and barre chords in guitar as it is my favourite.

Ok, I got ur words, So simply transpose means lowering or increasing the note, is it??

Let's say,

if a song in the key of G has an intro of

C/D/C/D

Em/D/C/D

Verse Em/Bm/Em/Bm

Em/ Bm / C / Bm

If we tranpose it a note higher to the key of A

Intro : D / E/ D /E

Fm / E / D / E

Verse : Fm/ Cm/ Fm / Cm

Fm/ Cm/ D/ Cm/

Is it correct??
