I am workin on a project with multiple tracks...when I was studying the sheet music I came across a track that constanly played the D chord added with an high A note in it...a second guitar plays the same chord but on a certain time it played Cadd9 and G/B ,,,so my question can we play diffrent chords over each other..

Maybe you could direct me to some more examples on the net (YT)..

thx
Willem

These chords will not work together

D is made up of D A and F#

Cadd9 is C E G D

The notes of these chords will clash.
It's not normal to play different chords at the same time.

It's more normal to play possibily a different flavor of the same chord. D and D7 for instance.
Also it's very common to play different voices. It sounds better if there are two guitars strumming if one guitar plays a low voicing like an open chord and the other a different voicing further up the fretboard.

Hmmmm.....it's a bassline Willem, bassnotes backed up with a few other notes, technically you could call them Cadd9 and G/B, but they don't act as full chords. The main chord being played is D like the other guitar does.
