Harpal - Astha

Bm G D A

Hamro Nepal - Xmarica

For the intro: (G (full measure) C (full measure) )x 8 while singing the 'dhaka topi sirai ma' part, all the way to the 'yo hamroooo nepala' part.

Then the second intro comes in. For this the chord is basically a G but it is played only on the lower 3 strings. So I dunno exactly what its called but its the same as you would play a D but move it 7 bars up.

Then song = (G C D D) X 2
pre chorus = C D

Chorus G C D (bar chords this time)


---------

I dunno the title of this next song, but its by haribanksa acharya and it goes: hamri aama saari nai baathi chan (or smth like that..my lyrics = bad).

Its just a nepali strum pattern of G. Then when u get tired switch to C :D.

Peace.

good job deckchie :)

If you do figure out what goes in between (maybe its a chord with a G base, not sure) let me kno :D

ty.

dd

help me
guys,,,,,, i know some chords and how to alter them, but i do have problem in changing the chord i guess timing is my problem and i dont know the beating also can u help me guys? or in simple teach me to play guitar

Ahoy there pirate ;)

I'm no pro but I could suggest you sum 'practice' to master the art of flawless (almost ;)) chord changing.

G - Cadd9 - D combo.

I think this is the easiest chord progression to learn (for me at least) Cadd9 is like a G but you move ure middle and index finger exactly one string down (each). It is important to tap your feet as you don't want to be counting beats in ure head and try to remember which chord to change to as well.

At first tap your feet every 1 second. Give yourself four good taps then start on the 5th. on the 5th tap strum down on G. repeat the down stroke on tap 6,7,8 as well. so basically every second you are sturmming down on the G chord. One strum per second and the strum is downstroke.

Once you're comfortable with this tempo, try inserting an upstroke before the next downstroke. So when your feet touches the ground to tap, you have played downstroke and when your feet is up you have played upstroke. so in one second ure going to have one downstroke and one upstroke of the same chord.

Practise this for four beats (or four foot taps or four seconds whichever makes sense to you). on the fifth tap change to Cadd9. You will only have to move ure middle and index fingers (without changing their formation) a string lower.

Repeat the same exercise for Cadd9 for four taps and change chords to D. Changing to D, you just move ure middle and index fingers down while keeping ure ring finger where it is as a pivot. your pinkie should automatically raise itself so that your're pressing on the 2nd bar in the E string (sappai bhanda tala ko) with your middle finger.

Once you're comfortable with strumming and chordchanging you can modify your strumpattern to your taste. your right hand should feel comfortable oscillating up and down, and you only have to apply a bit of pressure in ure down stroke to emphasize on it hence making ure upstrokes sounding relatively 'softer'.

Another tip is while down stroking, try to hit the top 3 strings (bass), and while up stroking try to get the lower 3 strings (treble) to resonate :D you can come up with sum nice rhythms this way.

Using your thumb for downstrokes makes softer sounds than using a pic or ure index finger nails.

Thanks for the chords guys..i generally goto nepalisongchord.com, here are some of the song chords from that site Collection of Nepali Songs with its guitar chords and tabs.
