The lesson kicks off with the iconic chords from "Horse With No Name" (Em + D). Follow along as I provide chord-switching practice tips, ensuring a smooth transition between these foundational chords. This is followed by a play-along session for "Horse With No Name, making the learning process both interactive and enjoyable. Next, we explore the chords for "Dreams", accompanied by a detailed tutorial on switching from C to D on the guitar. We do the same thing (chords, strumming, play-along) and lastly, I share insights on the best way to learn full songs on the guitar, empowering older beginners to build on the skills learned in today's easy guitar tutorial.
