Beginner to GUITARIST Series: LESSON 2 (moving between chords, fixing strumming hand, new song!)
Did you succeed with last weeks songs? Are you reconsidering it all? Stick with it; this is the worst you will ever be at guitar playing again. Uphill from here!
Welcome to the Beginner to Guitarist Series. In this series of free lessons, I will walk you through from your first day of playing (or not playing) guitar, to the point where you can:
- Play 75-90% of songs that you enjoy or typically listen to (note: unless you are a Polyphia fan!)
- Self-teach and continue to progress into expert status
- Play along to melodies in songs that you hear in everyday life, and figure out chord progressions by ear
I will be teaching you skills through a list of songs that are enjoyable, relevant, and popular, so that you can enjoy listening to yourself play from a very early point in your learning!
In this week's lesson, I teach you the following skills and concepts:
- switching between chords
- Look for shared notes or finger positions between chords
- Fixate on how you’re getting from one chord to another (some are much easier than others)
- Getting away with it: avoiding playing a note until your hand has caught up to the rest of the chord (guitarists do this all the time)
- Arpeggiating instead of strumming: benefit of having a few extra milliseconds
Right hand:
- Relax relax relax! You’re too tense! (probably)
- Strum from your elbow and wrist, not just your elbow, and not just your wrist
- If it feels goofy, it probably is goofy
- Play in front of a mirror, and then watch guitarists play. Find a guitarist in the genre you like, and literally try to mimic them
- Emphasise the parts of the chord that mean the most to your ears: the root note (bass note), the melodic/vocal notes (highest notes)
New song for this week:
- The scientist
- Hard chords: open B7, A major, A7
- Easier chord: D chord
- Embellishing a d chord: you’ll hear this in SO many guitar songs

Thank you so much! This is so so helpful and I love this song so much so I’m so happy I can play it ❤️
Timestamps (relevant to lyrics) 2:10 - First verse (master of deception) 2:41 - (time travelling) 3:12 - chorus (so predictable) + long outro with solo is the same 3:45 - run through so far 4:25 - bridge + key change (watching your every move) 6:35 - funky middle part where strings play 8:26 - intro lick 9:22 - full play through
plllssss do the solo tutorial 😭
i’m in love w you btw
Homelander dropping another W video
As someone who is a novice, I will say that I would’ve gotten there faster following a series like this. Great work!
Love this series!!!!
Sorry about the sound resembling a phone microphone in a car - it is (decided to hop in the car for this one) ❤
man i love u bro these lessons are so awesome
بلا غني غني
❤ Lovely arrangement! The way the strings cry conjures sentimentality and pure nostalgia! Bellissima!
Thank you!!
I‘ve wanted to play the professor and la fille danse, for the longest time, after I watched your video, but nobody has a tutorial on it. Can you do one?
I will be as part of this series!
Shameless🙏
🔥🚬🐨
Hahahahahaha
Now I just need to find time…..
Now!
Ayyy we kept it going!!!
More of The Weeknd please😍
There will be more weeknd, i promise
"the famous chord" lmao

@@divelostmind HAHAHA Thats hectic, i like that
fire
love thiss hope u keep it going!!❤
I hope so too! You all have to bully me into continuing so I remember 😂
What is going in the seventh fret?
Got it. done and dusted. Thanks man. Very helpful. I can now play it but need to read the words while I sing it in Spanish ! 😂 It’s always easy when you know how. This is one of the reasons I love UA-cam.
What a nice comment
@@LachlanThomsonyou’re very welcome mate. Great work 👍🏻
Thank you man!
You’re welcome sir!
Thanks dude
You welcome
Good boy, Lachy. Be the preceptor that you are.
What a lovely comment, you don’t know how real that was ✌️
@@LachlanThomson Oh, I do now, man. I'm looking forward to this series! I'm not a beginner by any means but you are a very concise, succinct, and accessible teacher. It'll be cool to revisit some concepts and practicalities with you. It has been great to witness your journey from the "UA-cam guitar guy" to festival guitar player and beyond alongside that. I'm proud of your progression, my friend.
i bet they say the same damn thing
About what?
@@LachlanThomson it's the first verse of talk 2U. I just watched that tutorial, came here and the song was still in my head, thus the comment. 👽
@@blazebbx3173 oh - well, the goal is to NOT say the same damn thing, but instead do a very different thing, so that people become weapons at guitar
this is a good excuse to start playing guitar again
send it
Bro you’re the best, I will be here on the journey
thank you man, it'll be good!
I’m barely a little past this, but I can’t wait to see the next lessons👏 thx for the content
if that's the case, the improvement curve is gonna be so quick!
Another all too common Lachy W, I fear.
sadly, another one (god did)

oh yeah baby
cheers man thanks for the tutorial
De nada, og
There's six chords in Crisis by Bob Marley, four of them are used in Praise Jah In The Moonlight, which are, D, C#m, F#m and Bm. I sourced the six chords from the LITTLE BLACK BOOK OF 80 BOB MARLEY SONGS GUITAR CHORDS
