Acoustic Guitar Lessons – Easy To Learn And Easy To Play Guitar Chords Part 2
In this part 2 of my Acoustic guitar lessons you are going to learn the G chord and the D chord. These 2 chords is one of the easiest chords to play. Not only that, it is also one of the most used guitar chord in any song. Last time we learn the two basic easy chords which is the E minor and the C chord. These chords are the most basic open position guitar chords. An open position chord is one that contains at least one open string. And if you’re a beginner, these are the first chords that you should learn.
The G chords
Let’s start with the G chord. The G chord pattern is shown below in figure 1 in tablature form. To play this put your finger 3 on the 3rd fret of E string, finger 2 is in 2nd fret A string and finger 4 on 3rd fret high e string. This may seem more awkward at first only because you are using your 4th finger, which is your weakest finger. But I recommend that you should try to practice that weak finger because it is the easiest way to shift into another chord and you will discover it later as soon as you learn to play the guitar. The 0 means you play the open string and an open string is where you don’t touch the string with your left hand finger. Then strum down all the 6 strings. Make sure that all the notes of the chords sounded. How to check this? Simple, pick each string individually from the 6th string to the 1st string. This will help you make sure that all of the notes of the chord are sounding.
e——-3———————————————— High e (smallest string)
B——- 0———————————————–
G——-0———————————————–
D——-0———————————————–
A——-2———————————————–
E——-3———————————————— Low E (biggest string)
Figure 1
And once again, all the notes on all string should be sounding perfectly; strum all the strings down and up strokes. Then count each time you strum. Count 1, 2, 3, 4 and also 1 & 2 & 3 & 4.
Try to play a basic 2 chord progression with the G and the C chord that we learn in the previous acoustic guitar lessons chords. You have to practice switching between these 2 chords. Keeping a steady beat and counting. Strum the G chord 4 times at the count of 1, 2, 3, 4 and then shift to C chord. Again play the C chord 4 times at the count of 1, 2, 3, 4. Try not to stop because your goal here is to switch between chords with perfect timing and it sounds the best as possible.
The D chord
The Next Acoustic guitar lessons chords is the D chord. The D chord pattern is shown below in figure 2. To play this, put your finger 1 on the 2nd fret of G string, finger 3 is on 3rd fret of B string and finger 3 on 2nd fret high e string. Play the chord with only 4 strings starting from open D string. The E and A string should not be played and it consider as dead string. In some cases it can’t be avoided to hit, just try to mute the string to stop from sounding. Again make sure that all the notes of the chords sounded.
e——–2———————————————– High e (smallest string)
B——-3———————————————–
G——-2———————————————–
D——-0———————————————–
A——————————————————-
E——————————————————– Low E (biggest string)
Figure 2
Now its time play a basic chord progression with all the acoustic guitar lessons that we have learned. You have to practice switching between chords effectively. Keeping a steady beat and counting.
Try to play the following Chord progression shown below
- G – C – D – G
- G – Em – C – D
- C – G – Em – D
- D – C – G – D
Strum the first chord 4 times at the count of 1, 2, 3, 4 and then shift to the next chord. Do the same thing again to the remaining chords.
Okay there you have it the next 2 easiest guitar lessons chords. Now its time for you to practice. Enjoy and have fun. Good luck!

Left Handed Electric Acoustic Guitar Question
I need some advice on my My hand hurts so much while playing guitar?
I have been playing guitar for about 10 years and i cant shake the fact that my left hand cramps up so bad after just playing for 30 min. Now i play acoustic guitar not electric. It cramps up towrds the the middle of my hand and in between my tumb and index finger. Any thoughts or warm up things i can do?
I was just talking with someone about this today. My advice is to get your guitar setup. If the action is already low, then you will have to consider scale length and string gauge as part of the problem. A shorter scale length will make the strings feel a little “softer”. For example a fender guitar (25.5 scale) with 12 gauge strings will have higher tension then a gibson guitar (24.75 scale) with 12 gauge strings. The neck might also be too big for you, the fretboard radius might not be comfortable, you could be holding the neck wrong, etc….My hands take forever to warm up. I usually warm up my right hand first, simple arpeggios while alternating between two simple chords. Then ill do a few scales for the left. You might also have a medical issue and should ask your doctor to take a look at it next time you see them.
In Need Of Guitarist Opinion (Experienced)?
I’ll be buying a Randy Rhoads right or lefty electric guitar soon. I currently own a right handed acoustic that I unknowingly have been playing backwards. I’m right handed but I when picked up the guitar, my right hand went to the neck. I taught myself a little on the guitar with informational books, but I’ll be taking actual lessons this summer. My question is, if I should buy a left handed guitar or a right handed one. When I tired to play the guitar the right handed way it was very uncomfortable. It just feels so much better with my dominant hand moving in the frets, other than my weak left. I don’t want to buy a right hand guitar and find out its really difficult to learn because I’m a lefty, or vice versa. Plus the left handed version is 200 bucks more. Please help me out; your responses are appreciated.
Well, I’d say go with what works for you. Sounds as if that is just the way it was meant to be for you.
If you’re still confused, ask the person who you will be training with. They’ll give you good advice, especially if they’re going to be helping you from the start.
Good Luck

Make sure that all the notes of the chords sounded. How to check this? Simple, pick each string individually from the 6th string to the 1st string. This will help you make sure that all of the notes of the chord are sounding.

If all the notes on all string should be sounded perfectly then Strum all the 5 strings down and up strokes like the Em Chord. Then count each time you strum. Count 1, 2, 3, 4 and also 1 & 2 & 3 & 4.
Now its time play a basic chord progression with the 2 Acoustic guitar lessons chords that we have learned. You have to practice switching between the 2 chords that we have learned previously.
