Left Hand Chords:

Instead of single (or double) notes, you may take things to another level and play full three-note chords. Simply replace the single or two notes played together with chords. These chords are A minor, F major, G major and C major. The chords follow a pattern. They are as follows:

Am – F – G – C (A minor – F major – G major –  C major)
Am – F – G – C
Am – F – G – C
Am – F – G – C

The notes of the Am (A minor chord) are A-C-E. The notes of the F major chord are F-A-C. The notes of the G major chord are G-B-D. The notes of the C major chord are C-E-G.

Keep repeating this sequence of chords.

Keep practicing and you’re bound to get it. 🙂 Happy learning! All the best.
