Learn some chords on the guitar which you can use for a lot of songs. Who knows? Maybe your favorite song is very simple to play.
Hello guitarists, wannabees and non-musicians! I would like to show you and maybe make you learn some easy chords on the guitar. A lot of songs (especially pop songs) uses only 3-4 chords which go on and on through the whole song. Including pop music, I mean artists like Avril Lavigne, P!nk, Blink182, Beatles, 50 cent, Eminem, Rolling Stones, Bob Marley, Lady Ga-Ga, Akon and many many more!

I expect that you’re a beginner, and that you want to learn some guitar chords, so that you can play along to some of the songs you like. Right? Well lets go then!
First chord I want to show you is named “C”. It looks like this:


You do only use 3 fingers. Remember that your fingers must be in the middle of the the horizontal metal bars.
Second chord is the “D” Chord. It looks like this:

The D chord is very nice and easy. You use it for very many songs.
Third and last chord is the “G” chord.
This is the one I use the most I think. But it is pretty much different from song to song of cause.

Well people. This was it. When you’ve got these 3 chords, you can play a lot of songs, or just play these three over and over again to make a beginning of your own song. I hope you, as a beginner, could use this information. If you’ve got any questions then just ask me!
