Ahhh Grass hopper when you can walk the length of the hallway on rice paper with out leaving a trace of where you have been it will be the time ......

WHAT HAS THAT GOT TO DO WITH YOUR QUESTION I HEAR YOU SCREAM GRASSHOPPER ...

Its the positioning of the capo that brings the F#m into play ...

I'm glad I was able to teach you something Grasshopper

LMAO

OK Witchy

Basically it is as follows. If you play your normal Eminor shape that is (obviously) Em but if you put a capo on the 2nd fret and play your normal Eminor shape it becomes F#m as the capo has changed the key.
ie E - F - F#m (2 steps - capo 2nd fret)

if you put the capo on the 3rd fret - Em becomes Gm

5th fret - Am

7th fret - Bm

cheers ian

Nice progression hilch, i been playin a similar one E7-A7-B7
Try that 12 bars mixing up the beats each chord gets and
strum patterns. Try to finish each chord change with an
upstrum

Grasshopper F#m broken down in to simple terms and I do not mean to sound condescending <-- ( Clancy did I spell that right ?)

F= F chord and aptly named just add the ing and you have have it ..

# = Something way tooo rude for me to post here if you happen to know a guy in Spain named MyCoolKane ask him for the spanish of it he knows ..

M= is just like Homer Simpson would say about beer .." mmm beer "

Hope I have guided you through this fun but at times difficult process of playing the guitar ..
