Guitar the C major choord

The C Major chord should look like a staircase. The index finger forms the lowest step. It will feel odd when you begin to work on chords in this way but the more you practice chords and as your fingers become stronger, you will not have a problem forming chord structures with your hands. Don’t worry if when you begin practicing chords that sound horrible and the notes sound strange. As they say “practice makes perfect.”
To play the A Major chord:
•
Put the index finger on the second fret and fourth string.
•
Put the middle finger on the second fret and third string.
•
Put the ring finger on the second fret and second string.
•
Now, beginning with the fifth string, strum the strings quickly. Don’t play the sixth string.
The A Major chord is harder to play than the C Major chord because three fingers are crunched together on the second fret. Play the chord a couple of times so you can see how it sounds and feels. If you continue to have problems or your fingers are big and cannot fit together on the second fret, you may want to try other fingerings. One solution is to use the middle finger instead of the ring finger to press down the second and third strings together.
