Printable Left-Handed Guitar Chord Chart

Most chord charts are drawn for right-handed players, which means lefties have to flip every diagram in their head. This chart is drawn the way you see your own guitar: low E on the right. It has the 12 beginner chords plus F, Bm, B7 and Cadd9.

Questions

Are left-handed guitar chords different?

The chords are the same notes and the same fingers, just mirrored, because the guitar is strung the other way. This chart draws them mirrored so you can copy them directly.

Should a left-handed person play a left-handed guitar?

Many do, and many lefties play right-handed. Pick whichever feels natural for strumming; both are fine.
