Transposing Guitar Songs
Transposing is where you take the chords for a song, and change them all to a higher or lower key, keeping the relationship between the chords intact.
The main reasons for wanting to do this are:
- The key doesn't suit your singing voice
- The song is in a key which produces difficult-to-play chords ( e.g. a flat or sharp key ).
I've written an article which gives you a simplified way of transposing song chords, and understanding the concept behind it, you can view it at:

After you've done this a few times, it will become instinctive, so that you can read a song in the key of Eb, and transpose it to D or E without having to stop and think about it.
Enjoy your music,
