Wild Thing is the first riff we're learning using chords only!

As well as the same 3 frets we've used for many riffs so far, we always unlock so many songs with just the A, D and E chords.

The Three Essential Chords:

  • A major: Three options - standard (triangle style), three-in-a-line, or one flat finger version

  • D major: Standard triangle shape

  • E major: Classic 3 finger shape

Chord Progression:

  • Pattern: A-A-D-D-E-E-D-D (two strums on each chord)

  • This repeating pattern forms the entire song!

  • Use the words and lyrics to help with the rhythm - two strums for 'Wild...Thing' for example

Whether you're struggling or just want to improve, I've got some tricks that will make your chord changes sound smooth and effortless. Visual jam tracks like this are only available in the Andy Guitar Beginner Electric course and other premium courses
