Let me give you some advice:
I've been playing for 20 odd years now. You've made some important steps today.
You have an instrument, a goal, and the information required to reach the goal.
That's a big deal!
My suggestion would be, instead of learning the chords, start slow with just learning the main note of each chord and play them one by one. Ie: if the progression is C major, D minor, E major, then just locate the C, D, and E notes and play along with the song.
It's a slow process, but it's incredibly fulfilling if you give yourself the space and patience to learn and most importantly, have fun!
I learned glycerine by bush and come as you are by Nirvana just single notes when I first started. It gave me the confidence and sense of accomplishment to continue.
If you need any help, or guidance, shoot me a message. Always happy to help someone with their musical journey ๐
Heh, thanks. I think Iโve scared myself off already
