Hey guys, let me show you this simple trick that will make your chords interesting and beautiful. We are going to add different elements over a simple chord progression in G major.

The trick is to start simple. I picked a chord progression in G major because I know many of you already know the chords in G. By knowing the chords you should be able to fully focus on the musical elements we are about to add.

I am going to add a simple fingerpicking patter, a melody and a different chord progression (using the same chords).

As always, take it step by step. The fingerstyle pattern is simple but I am sure that some of you will find it challenging because of the thumb “jumping” on two strings. Learn one chord at a time if you have to.

Good luck!
