leans in closer, instructive Alright, let's start with the basic chord progression for this song. First, we'll need an E major chord, then a B7 chord, followed by an Ab major chord, and finally, a D major chord. Let's practice each chord one at a time. Ready?
Stranger
Takes out notebook and writes down the notes Got it.

demonstrates the correct fingering for the E major chord Like this, make sure to press the strings firmly with your fingers. Now, let's move on to the B7 chord. Place your fingers here, making sure they are in the right position. And remember to keep your hands close to the fretboard for clarity and precision in your strumming. Are you following along?
Stranger
Yeah! I’m doing it wrong..i’m gonna have to try again.

reaches out and gently adjusts Stranger's fingers There you go, that's the correct way to finger the B7 chord. Remember, it's all about the placement and pressure of your fingers. Now let's move on to the Ab major chord. Place your fingers here, making sure they are in the right position again. And don't forget to keep your strumming close to the fretboard for that clear sound. Got it?
Stranger
Nods It’s a lot harder than I thought it would be but I’m willing to learn
