Hi again,
Thought I would just do a little update on the guitar playing.
I must admit I have not been practising the F chord, Shame on me I know, If I had have done I would be playing it spot on by now, but lesson learned and from now on I will have a go at it every day. (promise)
I can now play a few of the above songs without the song sheet in front of me....
Mad World - Tears for Fears
Apologise - Timbaland (I think)
Payphone - Maroon 5
Joleene - Dolly Parton
Good Riddance - Green Day
I want to learn more, I don't have enough time to fit all my hobbies in, its so frustrating.

Hi there
I have been practising the F chord but it still not smooth moving between chords, but its getting a little better to do the F shape.
Hope you are practising to
One day I will post me playing and singing - so you can see how I'm getting on.
