Easy Chords

First we will set up our guitar with a sponge on the low 3 strings (E, A, and D). This will mute the notes as the strings are played so we can only hear the high 3 strings being played.
Countdown till christmas!!!

Queen - Another one bites the dust
To set up for this song, we are going to move the sponge so that it is covering the 4 low strings instead of 3 (E, A, D and G).
Muting
Here we use this technique to mute the notes and make the sound of each chord short and sharp.

Tip: when changing between chords, have fingers in position so there is very little movement needed.
e.g. for the verse of this song, play Emin with fingers in position for Amin.
