Moveable chord forms

Besides barre chords, there are many other moveable chords you can form. Most moveable chords are done on four strings, in four usual groupings: 'outside' chords, done on strings 1-4; 'inside' chords, done on strings 2-5; bass register chords, done on strings 3-6; and inside chords with sixth string bass notes.
