Scorpions - Still Loving You - Chorus

The reason I use an open G chord for this is that I just prefer the sound. Be sure to deaden the A string when playing the G chord this way. You can use a barre chord instead if you prefer. None of these chords use a third so they're niether major or minor but the progression is still in the key of G Minor.

Audio example:

Chorus first 8 barres

Repeat this chord progression twice

    Gm         D#         A#         F
||-----------|----------|----------|-------||
||o----------|----------|----------|------o||
||--0--------|----------|----------|-------||
||--0--------|-8--------|----------|-------||
||o-x--------|-6--------|-8--------|-3----o||
||--3--------|----------|-6--------|-1-----||

The Scorpions change the progression here. Sometimes they play the progression straight forward, just the basic chords.

Audio example:

Chorus barres 9 -12


  G          C          D          G
|----------|----------|----------|--------------|
|----------|----------|----------|--------------|
|-0--------|----------|----------|--------------|
|-0--------|-5--------|-7--------|--------------|
|-x--------|-3--------|-5--------|-5----(5)---5-|
|-3--------|----------|----------|-3----(3)-----|

Sometimes they play with a bit more as in this example.

Audio example:

Chorus Variation barres 9 -12

  G F  G        C          D C  E        G  F
|-------------|----------|-------------|--------------|
|-------------|----------|-------------|--------------|
|-------------|----------|-------------|--------------|
|-------------|-5--------|-7-\5-7------|-12-10--------|
|-5-\3-5------|-3--------|-5-\3-5------|-10--8------5-|
|-3-\1-3------|----------|-------------|--------------|

Chorus end.

It usually ends like this.

Audio example:

Chorus last barres 13 -16


  D#                            F
|-------------|---------------|--------------|-------|
|-------------|---------------|--------------|-------|
|-------------|---------------|--------------|-------|
|-8-----------|---------------|-10-----------|-10----|
|-6---5-6---5-|-6-5-6-5-6---7-|--8---7-8---7-|--8----|
|-------------|---------------|--------------|-------|
