Putting a capo on a guitar doesn't make it major or minor, but simply changes the length of the strings so that the same chords could be used in higher keys without changing the tuning.
To play a song in minor, you need to learn totally different chords. For example, (I'm using guitar terms, not normal music terms) the E chord is different from the Em chord. You didn't put a capo on to get it differently, but moved your fingers to different positions.
I hope this helps!! =)

If you use the G fingering with the capo on the third fret, you are playing a Bb chord, which is three half-tones higher than G. If you wish to play in the key of G with the capo on the third fret, use the typical fingering for E, which is three half-tones lower than G.
What is the reason for using a guitar capo?
It changes a the tuning of the guitar. for instance if you put a capo on the first fret all strings are then tuned 1/2 step higher. ie.. your E string becomes an F. Your A string becomes an A# and so on. But doing this also moves all your frets higher as well. Where ever you put the capo becomes the nut and the fret after it would be the first fret. Hope I didn't confuse you. No you didn't u explained it supper dupper well! -------------------- You can also use a guitar capo for alternate tunings. For example, simply put a capo on the second fret covering all stings except the low E. you made your own "Drop E" style, without even changing the tuning of the guitar.
