Practice this till you can sing and play it at a steady tempo without
having to hesitate between your chord changes. If you are having trou
ble, slow it down. Practice counting out loud and just going through
the chord changes without singing. As you get more comfortable, start
humming under your breath in combination with your counting. And
then, as this becomes more comfortable sing it out, and sing it strong!
Again, we're not trying to be "fancy" here ( "fancier" stuff will come in
the next part). Right now, we want to focus on being steady and consis-
tent. Once you're ready, let's move on and learn some more important
chords.
