Yes, this is why it's important to know the layout and location of the musical alphabet notes on all strings across the fretboard.

Again, in this lesson I show the layout of all the note letters on the A string. There's a handy graphic, too!

Then I show how to move one similar shape to play different lettered chords moving up the fretboard. Hope this helps!
