Lesson Six - Strumming Chords

This Lesson is about putting a cool strumming pattern behind your chord.  Call it a "groove."  You will also work on what I like to call the "Campfire" approach to playing songs.  Keep the following in mind when working through this Lesson:

• Six strumming patterns are given at the beginning of this lesson (three 4/4 patterns and three 3/4 patterns).  They are all good, but the best ones are the third and fifth patterns.  I call them the "all purpose 4/4 strum" and the "all purpose 3/4 strum."
• "All Purpose" Four - Four Strumming Pattern

• "All-Purpose" Three - Four Strumming Pattern
