One thing I found is that certain songs are easy to strum along too, the beatles In my life is one. Tracy chapmans Baby can I hold you, Brown eyed girl Van Morrison.... there are many more of course.
The other thing I found is to listen to the song you are trying to play over and over if you have an MP player have a section just for the songs you intend to learn (be realistic dont fill it up too much) and listen to em over and over, it works for me...
Dont miss a day of practice.... even if its 10 minutes... just dont miss day.
The other thing is to remember that your fingers are not the wrong shape !!

Re: where is everybody from? (242 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
45 years old.
From Hartlepool in the North east of England originally.
Now in Weston-super-Mare 20 miles south of Bristol.
Bin playing 2 years and cannot put the soddin thing down, and I thought golf and fishing where addictive. Prefer playing with others but am not good enough to be in a band at the moment but will keep trying.
Keep rockin` dudes.
Tommo.
