If I am playing a song in the key of G and my next song is in D,how do I end the first song on D when it seems like I should resolve on G?
I heard Brenton talk about it in terms of suspending the song, but unsure if it will sound right.
Hi Deb! Great question! In this case, the D would be the 5 chord. Typically songs don’t resolve well on the 5 chord, usually the 4 (suspended) sounds better, which would be the C. In some cases, like “Your Love Never Fails”, I end it on the 5 chord, by singing “Your love never (C)Fails, (Em) ////| (D) (Ring out the D). That gets me to the 5 chord, and it doesn’t sound weird. Another option is to resolve to the G, and then kinda let the G sound linger, and slowly walk up to the C, and then slide up to the D. Does that make sense? Sometimes I’ll end a song on the 4 chord (the C), and then lightly finger pick, alternating between the C and the D (4 and 5 chords) before finally settling on the D, and going into the next song. Please let me know if that helps, or if you have any questions about it! -alex
