Need Songs with easy to play chords (keyboard) for beginners
« on: September 07, 2007, 06:02:32 PM »
This title says it all. I'm practicing scales and I'd like to play some easy possible praise & worship or plain ol' church songs with simple chords so I can learn to play an actual whole song.

Any takers?
Thanks ahead of time

The turnaround is what gets you back to the top set of chords. Do you like the chords? Are they ok for you?

I play so much that I struggle with corpal tunnel syndrome in both of my hands. :( But someone will have to kill me in order to stop me from playing though. ;) Those chords that ferrente posted are very nice too. Just let us know if there is anything else that we can do to help you. You'll get it, I guarantee that you'll get it. Just try to pace yourself!! God bless
