mediumEm-A-D Approach Tones
Before each chord change, play the note one semitone above the target chord's third. Em (G#āG), A (C#āC# hold), D (GāF#). Use this chromatic approach on the off-beat before each chord hits. Practice with a metronome at 90 BPM.
Tip: Approach tones create tension that makes the resolution more satisfying. Jazz players use this constantly.
