Guitar Chord

The best thing you can do with any guitar chords chart is to learn its contents and then throw it away. You need to get to the point where you can instantly recall guitar chords on an automatic basis. So if you are playing with a friend and they shout out some chords you can just playing them on automatic pilot.

Start with a guitar chord chart for beginners

You aim is to learn the whole contents of the chart in a month and then wean yourself off it. Learn the chords that are in a key and just play them over and over again in any order. An an example play the chords of E, A, B7 and D as a set and play them over and over.

Close your eyes and I'll miss you

Once you have learnt and mastered these 4 chords keep playing around them but with your eyes closed. When you go wrong DO NOT OPEN your eyes. Try to correct your fingering by feeling your way around the fretboard. the constant looking at your hands is slowing you down in the learning process.

Do something else at the same time

I often watch the news on TV while playing the guitar. It drives my wife mad! But I know that if I can keep playing a chord arrangement while watching TV I have learnt those chords to the point that I will not forget them and I will play them automatically when needed.

This may seem madness but you must not use a guitar chord chart once you have found your way around the guitar for 4 or 5 weeks. You will keep stopping your playing to look the chords up rather than training your brain and fingers to go there automatically.
