The first 7 songs I learned, each song adds one new chord to your arsenal so you can learn a new chord and have a song to go with it. I worked on these it in this order: Leaving on a Jet Plane, Tom Dooley, Cats in the Cradle, You are my Sunshine, Amazing Grace, Blowin' in the wind, Our God (you could hold off on Blowin' in the wind till the end, it's tricky but a fun one to practice faster changes!) Don't stress about strumming patterns, just have fun!

This booklet continues from the booklet "Learners Songs One". It contains a few new chords (mainly experimenting with F chords - which arenn't that hard if you really try!). This book should be attempted after you've had a look thorugh the first. Note: I am using these songs to TEACH MYSELF and I have only been playing for a month. You will need to look up the strumming elsewhere. Have fun and good luck :)
