Hey, my name is Michael. I'm grade 12. I picked intro guitar 11 to learn "how to play guitar" the basic guitar cord, to play some songs that i love and reherse them to the class to show them that i can play guitar, i have a guitar at home but don't know how to play it fully probably some easy spngs now and there, mr mancell's class is really relaxing to learn how to play basic guitar. im excited to learn how to play guitar after this semester cause i'll know all the cords!. about me i love to play sports and work hard at anything that comes my way. i also love to swim,run,work out at the gym and hanging out with my friends

pumped up kicks by foster the people same cords as something in the air but different struming patterns

Sweet home alabama by lynyrd skynyrd one of the most easy songs to play on guitar.

UPDATE:

I haven't updated this site in awhile but for the past 2 to 3 weeks in guitar, i've proposed a song called "Boulvard Of Broken Dreams" by Green Day on Friday, also the following week, i also played the song called "The Funreal" by The Band Of Horses, It hasd been a slow successful 3 weeks of guitar class because, we've learned how to "write songs" from basic knowledge to write a basic song, with meaning to it, and write a chorus,bridge, intro and break.
