4 Chords, 19 Songs on Guitar
I give an example of some of the many songs that can be played using the same four chords in the same order.
Watch my guitar lesson to learn how to play these four chords: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmChNlDknbM
Watch my other video, “4 Chords, 21 Songs on Guitar” to see me play 21 different songs with these four chords: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pzkilz940dw
*Note: A few things may be confusing for those of you who watch my instructional video and try to play these songs, so I will try to ease your confusion.
1) In the instructional video I teach the chords G,D,Em,C, whereas in this video I play C,G,Am,F and use a capo. The songs can be played with either set of chords, but will be in a different key, depending on which you use.
2) If you want to play along with me while watching the video but don’t have a capo, then you can play D#, A#, Cm, G# (sorry, it’s awkward).
3) The order of the chords after “Take On Me” switches from C,G,Am,F (G,D,Em,C) to Am,F,C,G (Em,C,G,D). It is the same order of chords, but I start with the minor chord for the last few songs.
4) Not all of these songs use ONLY these four chords in this order, so I may just be playing a section of the song that does.
5) I don’t have the strumming pattern written down or anything, so if you want to figure it out I just suggest playing along with the video, or try making up your own strumming patterns.
The songs I play in order are:
James Blunt – You’re Beautiful
Five for Fighting – Superman (It’s Not Easy)
Jason Mraz – I’m Yours
Fort Minor – Where’d You Go
Maroon 5 – She Will Be Loved
Alicia Keys – No One
Black Eyed Peas – Where is the Love?
Rex Hermogino – Love on the Internet
Mika – Happy Ending
Beatles – Let It Be
Red Hot Chili Peppers – Under the Bridge
Michael Jackson – Man in the Mirror
a-ha – Take On Me
T.I. – Whatever You Like
OneRepublic – Apologize
Outlandish – Aicha
Toto – Africa
Eagle Eye Cherry – Save Tonight
Beyonce – If I Were a Boy
