Adding an A Chord to the C# 6/8 Groove

If you don't know how to read guitar tab (as computer text), this section of a Wikipedia article may help.

Let's add an A chord to the C#m chord. Remember, the time signature counts something like 1-2-3-4-2-3:


C#m A
e|--4--4--4--4--4--4--|--5--5--5--5--5--5--|
B|--5--5--5--5--5--5--|--5--5--5--5--5--5--|
G|--6--6--6--6--6--6--|--6--6--6--6--6--6--|
D|--6--6--6--6--6--6--|--7--7--7--7--7--7--|
A|--4--4--4--4--4--4--|--7--7--7--7--7--7--|
E|--------------------|--5--5--5--5--5--5--|
