Re: HELP ME!!! IM A NEWBIE HERE!!!!

welcome Kelsey!!!

Cadd9 is the same shape as a G chord.

Index finger on the 2nd fret 4th string

Middle finger on the 3rd fret 5th string

Ring finger on the 3rd fret 2nd string

Funny, this whole time I've been playing it with my ring finger on the 3rd fret 1st string.

Anyway, have a go and good luck!!!

Keep Rockin!!!!!!!!!!!
