Chorus 1

I'm a loading,

a loa ding my war machine

I'm contributing to the system,

The break down scheme

I'm a shutting down,

I'm shutting down, your greed for green,

I am here to gun it down

I gotta do

Barre chords ask a lot of the fretting hand. The barre course walks through hand position, pressure, and the cleanest way to land each shape. Practice barre chords

Most chord-change problems come from the strumming hand, not the fretting hand. The basic strumming course covers the patterns and timing that make any chord progression easier to play. Practice basic strumming
