Welcome back. In today’s video I attempted to play the chorus to Jolene. The fact that actually playing the song only lasted a few seconds is not a complete failure. Jolene is known as a fairly easy song to play but I think the challenge for me is just simply lack of experience. The chords that are used are quite simple and easy enough to change but they still require a bit of visual focus for me. The chords are A minor, C, and G.

Where I get into trouble is that I need to peak at the chords everyone once in a while and I also need to look at my picking to make sure I am hitting the right strings. These are both things that I think I can improve on with a little more practice but right now they are an issue. The third issue is that I need to be looking at the screen for the chord changes. As you can tell, looking in three different places at once is not a recipe for success. I think I need to try to find some alternate ways of learning, whether that is different videos or different types of resources. Here is my video and I will post the video that I have been using as a resource as well. Thanks for checking in!
