    Remember the first chord sequence you played ? C Am F G

    First of all you played each chord once in the right hand.
    Then you played a left hand note followed by the right hand chord.

    OK now let’s try it another way

    Play each chord TWICE - SLOWLY with your RIGHT hand


    So TWO beats for EACH chord C C Am Am F F G G

    Along with the FIRST of the two beats play the ROOT note of the chord
    (the note that gives the chord its name) one or two octaves lower down
    the keyboard with the LEFT hand.

    C Am F G

    (note - these 3 chords are played below middle C)

    RIGHT HAND CHORDS C Am F G

    SLOWLY

    LEFT HAND NOTES C A F G

    COUNT 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4

    Remember - this chord sequence is used in songs like


    BLUE MOON, RED RED WINE, OH WON’T YOU STAY,
    ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE and many more 1-31
