And now for the third installment of our epic trilogy… (Movie trailer voice) D major!

Learn the easy version first if you have trouble holding down the chord. Only play those highest two strings in the easy version. Remember, thumb behind the neck. Fingers straight down, not all sideways.

Once you have the easy chords down, you’re ready to start practicing the full versions. Start on the D strong (that fourth one with the “O” on top which means “open string”.

Now that you know G, C, and D you can start playing songs! I’ll put up one or two on the blog soon or you.
