__**Hi**__

__**Weeks 1-2**__ Learned chords A, D G and Em. Played 2 songs. It was super effective!

__**Week**__ **3** Played "Pumped Up Kicks" for playing test, ended up being the only one singing. Yay. Got sheet music for "Hey, Jude" - Beatles Will learn chords - F, C, C7sus4, C7, F7, Bb, Gm7.

__**Week**__ **4** Continuing work from last week.. there were no performances. Decided to play "House of the Rising Sun." Down to one partner, still the only one singing. + some intense finger picking. C7sus4 ended up a tad bit too difficult to play, so instead, Jasmine and I found an easy way out.

__**Week**__ **5-current** No clue how many weeks have passed now. Learning "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz and Paparazzi by Lady Gaga... Good times. Chords: Cm, Ab, Fm, C# and E7, Am/G, Dm, G - bar chord :D

__**This week**__ Going to play A Thousand Years by Christina Perri. C, G, Em, D - All bar chords.

__**The week after** **last**__ Someone Like You - Adele. G, G/F#, E, C

__**The Following Week**__ A Bm F#m D Halo, Beyonce

__** Soon after, **__ Boulevard of Broken Dreams - Greenday C, Em, G, D, Am

__**And** **now, when I honestly have no clue what week it is, other than the fact that it is the last week of guitar before Christmas...**__


 * Stuff.**

Because I can.

I wonder what the criteria for this blog thing really is. It was handed out at the start of the course, but never really enforced..

__**January the Seventh.**__ My song? Let's get to it.

I think I've got it now. I just need my guitar to add chords.


 * Safe**

I was walking through/down the street Saw the pain of many things Heard the dark call of defeat Felt what it would bring

Then I saw it aimed at you Like an arrow ready to shoot I did not know what to do but I knew I'd have to rise so

I'll take a stand You make me see the best in me I don't know how but I'll take a stand There word round town to get you down I'll fight to keep you safe

Now the time is right I feel the wind is calling I'm ready to set things right Or else we'll both end up falling

Why.. I cannot say I just cant let this gooo Dont get in my way You reap what you sow

I'll take a stand You make me see the best in me I don't know how but I'll take a stand There word round town to get you down I'll fight to keep you safe

We will fly above them far above their daze Don't you worry we are clear of the haze I will not stoop to that point of despair Not with you there

-this thing that sounds like chorus but finger picking maybe?-

We will take a stand You make me see the best in me I think I know now We'll take a stand There word round town to get us down Lets fight to keep us safe
