Wish You Were Here [1/4] by Pink Floyd Lesson

No, I would say the tab and the video are mostly in agreement.

My take is that this song is a very poor choice for learning from tab. The tab shows way too much detail, hiding what is in concept quite simple…It’s just a lovely chord progression built around the “stuck 3 4” grips.

Of course, the devil is in the details…but tabbing it out focuses on the wrong details.

Justin’s song lesson time stamp 2:50 says Em. Is he pressing 1st & 2nd strings?

Technically it’s an Em7 chord

Is there a chord name for that Em7 Justin plays with the 1st string 3rd fret?

If you’re asking about the 4 finger Em7 chord it’s a Em7. The 3 fret of the E string is the note G the flat 3rd of the Em7 chord

Dosen’t explain 4th finger.

The notes in an Em7 chord are E G B D.
The note in the 4 finger Em7 starting with the thick E are E B E G D G or
R 5th R b3rd b7 b3rd

just a variation of an Em7 then
