Question: Very interested in learning how to play te acoustic guitar but have no experience!?!!?
I have an acoustic guitar and I would really like to start to play!. I know I want to learn Your Guardian Angel by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus but I just don't know where to start because I have never played before!. So anyone that can tell me where to start and possibly show me the music to Your Guardian Angel, would be amazing!
thanks so muchWww@QuestionHome@Com

well your first option is to attend lessons with a professional teacher, but if that is not what you want, u can try searching for "basic guitar chords" on a search engine like yahoo google etc!. and then u can try this website, i find it very helpful (im teaching myself) http://www!.ultimate-guitar!.com

from there u just search for your song and u click on the one that says chords, or tab if you can read tab!. basically tab is a way of writing music as the individual picking etc!. whereas chords just show which chord u play!. if u wanna play traditional guitar songs, u know strumming etc, pick chords, if u wanna play songs that are quite involved like sweet home alabama, pick tab!.

basically all u need is ur guitar, that website, and lots of determination!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i can't play one either i've got small fingers and trouble reaching the top strings and moving to diffrent strets!. i restrung the guitar to go left handed and found it much easy for myself,next time Paul Mc is in town i may have a jam with him!. Good concert with David Knoll and Macca at anifield him enjoyed himselfWww@QuestionHome@Com

forget ppl here saying get lessons
jus a easy way out but waste of money

teach your self two chords

D major & E Minor

search on youtube

pratice switching between both when faster enough add chords in

you cant play a song with not knowing some chords

u would do this in lessons so what the point

good luck

It might be a drag, but the best advise I can give is to take professional lessons!. I taught myself bad habits along with the rest and just wish I'd started from scratch with a professionalWww@QuestionHome@Com

Have some lessons once a week and you should be able to play a good tune in 6-8 months!Www@QuestionHome@Com
