Topic: Song Chords
I have a problem, writing songs is a easy-ish but I'm restricted to chords because I'm hopeless at tabs! Anyway I'm just wondering which chords sound good together and which ones don't.

Hello David 137 - Here is a link that might help. Sometimes the simplest questions lead to the most complex answers. Basically, chords within a certain key work well together . . .

To best answer this simple question, it is necessary to talk in terms of basic music theory. This site offers some good insight, however it may seem confusing at first. Be patient and sort your way through the site.
The good news is that since you have been playing music for a while, you probably already have a 'gut' understanding of what works.
