There are different sites where you can find chords, so SPECIFIC to learn chords, in front of your PC. I still have a book too, because you can't imagine the different number of chords.
Best way to learn? You can write songs with 3-4 chords.
- I started with 4 major chords, later 7, just because some major chords, like B, are not so easy.
- websites: www.chordbook.com, you can tune your guitar, and move dots to see the chord. Another is www.all-guitar-chords.com

I was amazed, yesterday, I picked up my guitar again, and I HAD TO STOP because my fingertips were like brandnew.
It took me 8 days, and fingertips are gone.
Who can tell me more about this or has got the same problem.
I tried to find a medical cause, but I didn't.

I wanted to share this information, I play quit a bit, and only 8 DAYS !!! to have them back as if I never played.

Great, you have the CD. What never harms, your teacher will tell you the same, is practise, and if you know this song, play-a-long, like he is teaching you.

My ex and me we still have a great contact. 
I think I would continue working, until my 60 years, and looking it from here, a lot of lawyers, CEO's MEDICAL DOCTORS....you are addicted pretty fast. As I started, I had friends who were addicted to alcohol, I went too TO FEEL THE SAME WHAT THEY FELT. But after 2 years and 9 extra people in the AA they preferred that if I was addicted I could stay, because, logic, those patients start being afraid, that I was following them

to etc_04, about the studies. I also believe that there are genes responsible. BUT WHAT'S FOR SURE is the INTERACTION, your father loves a lot music, but not active, mother plays and reads notes, on piano, you will see that more kids are influenced. Even if genetics are present, don't underestimate your education, personal interests. It is not because father is Keith Richards, that you will succeed him, even playing better!!! MOZART (Amadeus) his father LEOPOLD was a quit successful musician, and his sun, well we all know the story: "WONDER KID", he too was, I can only compare young Mozart with Michael Jackson, that sweet little boy from the Jackson 5, he had no CHILDHOOD, and all the problems, from medical point of view, are for us ABNORMAL, but not for him, he talks like child, acts like a child... So did Amadeus. There is no MUSIC centre in the brain, because music is to complex, but there is an "artistic" area sensitive to rhythm, melody, and harmony.

so high on a Christmastree

That's the real spirit my beloved doll. It is right Lena, isn't it? I am the first to admit that my topic is in fact a VERY about LUXE TOPIC.
But I posted it, because it is a time we can dream loud, and dreams are dreams. It is a time to consider the values in our lives, REFLECTIONS of my life, and you about your life.

Since I am sitting here at home, in 2 days (7th) I will be ALREADY 52, and despite everything, I may consider myself as an happy man. There are lots of things I can't do no more, like going to a concert, and certain where you have to stand right. I miss a lot of things, like no more ski, no ice skating and too much activities I loved.
On the other hand I am real happy.
Happy with all the opportunities I've got, to become a Medical Doctor, despite the fact that in my first year my father died suddenly just before the tests. To be blessed with a fantastic mother, who sacrificed a lot, to give each of us the opportunity to study. I'm blessed having a very good  memory, THAT I could use every day to help others, to use when studying, and so having more than enough time to have a sort of R&R life. Sometimes, it was a curse too, RESTLESS MIND.

I hope that I was a good doc for my patients.
I feel happy to see people and I did every possible thing for my patients. I am happy (and hope these people too) that I could help financially. Also I often (about 50% of all patients) asked a lot less money to people having it difficult, I even wasn't ashamed to give money to some people, like I did a few times, but this I will never forget: giving 200€ to a family with so many debts, they didn't have money for food, electricity shut of, using candles and 4 kids, I never wanted a thank you, and I felt real bad if I didn't help.
If I should mention how much money (= White Penguin, all the $$ together).Yes Doll, there is still a lot, more than you think, poor people, ashamed to go out their doors. I hope I was a good man, despite the bad things. If I should start again, I should probably ACT the same way, maybe not the same profession. That is the spirit of Christmas, analysing your self, happiness making right what was wrong, the value of a family, try to live, even in my condition. I just regret that almost ALL time went to my work and destroying my private life. There is no need for THIS BIG BUSINESS= ALL YOU NEED IS A HEART, WITH LOVE and NO HATE.  THAT IS CHRISTMAS FOR ME. I found HARMONY, STABILITY, only a relation is missing.
But let us dream too. It don't hurt.
I just hope that people will remember me how I was, who I was, I just loved my work. I only wanted the best for "my people"
What I do regret is that my private life was a mess, working 80-90 hours a week, my daughter grew up and will be 20 years at Christmas, and I wasn't there for her. You can't turn back the time. Am I a liar? Am I a bad person? because I didn't give her enough time? After my divorce, she was free to go, in stead of "THE EVERY 2 WEEKS I HAVE TO SEE HER PROBLEM" she and me we had other solutions, I have seen MORE THAN ENOUGH while working.

Russell, I am Christian, and what you write is correct EVEN MORE, who threw the "merchants" out of the temple? Also, about the Koran, interpreted different, like about women. The thing I WILL NEVER understand is how a war can start, because my God is better than yours (example) For me God is everywhere. People BELIEVE since mankind in thunder, lightning, so this people should be excluded? It is a fact that everything now turns around gifts, SONGS and the essential is neglected.

What is the best upbeat? Maybe SLADE? Merry Christmas Everybody. Or Elvis.
Elvis Presley       Blue Christmas / Love Me Tender
Elvis Presley     Merry Christmas Baby / Santa Claus Is Back In Town

I have 2 questions, the first is typical a European: How many different religions are there in the USA and what is a "baptist versus a new born Christian.

What is your favourite CHRISTMAS SONG, I don't believe this was asked before.
My song
- HAPPY NEW YEAR by ABBA

Badeye Big Boy needs Big Instrument, so Big Tree and Big Piano, or a GUITAR that matches with those trucks, or cars with HUGE TIRES.

About X-Mas, the title was to make people more curious.
1 chordian = 1 item (all music related, like a golden record belonging to the beatles)
WHAT, the $$$$$ don't matter, (IT IS SANTA remember) WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE UNDER THE CHRISTMAS TREE.

- A GRETSCH WHITE PENGUIN if possible the old one

I am able to play most styles. My big problem, is there an easy way to play Disco and Reggae.
I start with E, C, D, regular chords.
- Do I play them high? using barré, or a capo? or pure? and what works for me is a "hint" to keep the rhythm, like strum down twice and 1 up??

I found one I say nothing on amazon.com, there is only 1 left
I Say Nothing - Limited edition fold-out sleeve
~ Voice Of The Beehive (Artist)$18.52
+ $2.98shipping.
Google to www.amazon.com, I didn't look to amazon UK.
If you live in Europe, it will still be cheaper. I didn't know this band, but again google their name, and you will find probably what you are looking for. If you know this song, and you don't find the song, try to go to youtube and/or myspace, followed by playing along

I placed your topic here, and I will try to find it. But the song is performed by WHICH BAND?

UYK, I know a lot of Dylan covers, how many artists covered Blowin' in the wind? It is on a café/bar in New York that he played 2 verses, AND telling people this was NOT a protestsong, but now it is considered as best "protestsong" ever. Who determines this? CRITICS? I believe in critics, but now these days you can hear, find, listen to every song. In stead of throwing with mud and claiming that album X is the worst, and more idiot, THEY know what the lyrics mean. If I write: I was eating an apple o so red, that the maggot in it felt on my head, baby, oh baby what a nice maggot. This is a silly example, and, let's say I play in a famous band or alone, I say the truth, just some words, but critics are busy and get a headache, to analyse the lyrics, to link it with Freud, Jung.
Some covers are fantastic, much better than the original.
