The Gram Parsons song referred to above is Zah’s Blues. I have part of it going

F#m13 Am7+5 Cmaj7 Gm7 Dmaj7

or maybe I’m close. Beautiful song that he wrote and recorded when he was in high school. It’s very different from his later music.

Just wanted to say thanks for posting this page. I’m just getting started in Jazz guitar and it’s a big help that you laid out all of the finger position for each chord form. I know all of the easy ones, major, minor, but some of the more advanced chords I haven’t quite got memorized yet. Have you thought about a similar page for some of the other common jazz progressions?

thanks again,
-anthony

Thanks for adding the vids! I liked this page before, but am prone to do better with the “monkey see, monkey do” learning method. ;-)

I got this from Jody Fisher on youtube.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geYgMyDtoKg

These are variations on II V I in the key of F.

What he’s doing is using the same formation (finger pattern) for the V chord. He moves it up 2 frets each time.

Note that some folks would call the C9b5b13 chord a C9b5#5.

XX3333 Gm7
XX2312 C7b5
XX0011 F6/9 (no 3rd)

XX3333 Gm7
XX4534 C9b5b13
XX3555 Fmaj7

XX3333 Gm7
XX6756 C9#5
XX3555 Fmaj7

XX3333 Gm7
XX8978 C7b5
XX3555 Fmaj7

XX3333 Gm7
X.X.10.11.9.10 C9b5b13
X.8.10.9.10.8 Fmaj7

X.10.12.10.11.10 Gm7
XX.12.13.11.12 C9#5
XX.12.12.13.13 F6/9 (no 3rd)

I think I got all of the fingers right. Let me know if I need to make any corrections
