Hey what's up YouTubers?
Lee Jon Blackmore here at Super Easy Guitar.
So this week you've got your very first guitar.
This is your very first guitar lesson.
And we're going to learn the easiest guitar song in the world.
Would you believe?
And it's two chords.
So if you've never played chords before, try this song out.
Okay, it's just two chords.
They're super easy.
And even if you struggle with this song, you can click on the links below
and I've got ten easy songs without chords.
So you can check that out as well.
But if you've already done that and you just want to start getting into chords and strumming,
learning tons and tons of songs, this is the first step.
It's called The Horse With No Name and it's by a band called America.
You can check that out in the link below as well.
And it goes like this.
So we've got an E minor shape here.
Now if you don't know how to follow this pattern,
the lines that are going down are the strings.
It's kind of like the guitar like this.
So if the guitar is like that, the lines going down are the strings here.
And the lines going across are the frets.
So this very first chord is E minor.
Now you can do it with either way.
I'm just going to show you my first finger and my second finger.
And my first finger is going to go on the fifth string.
So we're in the second fret and we count from the thinnest to the thickest.
One, two, three, four, five.
And then our second finger, we put underneath it in the same fret but now on the fourth string.
So it looks like that.
And you can just nicely strum all of the strings.
Now all we do to play the second chord, which is like a D9 chord.
It's got a crazy name.
We're not too worried about the names right now.
All we're going to do is we're going to bring the first finger onto that thick string
and then the second finger underneath to where it already is onto the third string.
And it's going to sound [D] like this.
[B] Again, just strum nicely.
Don't strum too hard.
Don't [E] strum too soft.
Just in the middle nicely so you can hear the [D] notes.
[Em] Now if they're not ringing out correctly, make sure you're pushing down.
[D] Again, not too [Em] hard, not too soft.
So it's our first chord, E minor.
Now the strumming pattern, the easy strumming pattern is just down, down, down, down.
Change the chord.
So I want you to open up those two fingers [F] to the thick string and the third [D] string.
One, two, three, four.
And we can do it again, okay?
So just bring [Em] those fingers back close together.
One, two, three, four.
[D] One, two, three, four.
You [E] can just play it nice and easy, nice and slow, right?
Make sure you don't strum out too hard.
I see that quite a lot.
Make sure you strum down to the ground.
Softly hit all those [Em] strings.
I'm playing with a pick here.
You can do it with the side of your thumb.
No problem.
Not too hard.
It doesn't matter if you have an electric guitar, an acoustic [D] guitar.
It's going to work on all of them, okay?
[Em]
So the real strumming for the song is what I was doing at the beginning.
[D]
[Em] So if you're a little bit more advanced and you wanted to have a go,
the strumming is going to be down, down, up, down, up, down, up.
Change to the next [D] chord.
Down, up, up, up, down, up.
Let's do that again [Em] slowly.
Down, down, up, down, up, down, [D] up, down, up, up, up, down, [Em] up, down, down, up, down, up, down, [D] up, up, up, down, up.
And that goes through the entire song, okay?
So [B] that will be your very first [Em] song on the guitar, whether it's electric or acoustic.
Enjoy, guys.
I've got tons and tons more videos on my channel.
I've got tons without chords, okay?
So ten easy songs without chords, ten easy pop songs, ten easy rock songs.
Just go through ten easy Guns N' Roses, ten easy Nirvana, ten easy Green Day.
So you can check them out in the link below, okay?
Otherwise, you can find tons and tons of songs with chords, advanced stuff, rock songs, pop songs.
So check it out, guys.
Don't forget, share it with your friends.
We want everyone to play the guitar, alright?
Share it with your parents or share it with your kids if you're a parent, alright?
Enjoy, guys, and I'll see you again the same time next week.
