So, you want to be a singer and need some guitar chords to get started?
The first three chords I learned were D, G, and A7.
First, learn the D chord,

and then the G chord

or learn whichever chord of the three you want to do first!
It won't take a lot of time, and you will feel great!
Then you are well on your way to singing and playing many, many songs.

They allow you to transpose your favorite songs into the key of D, or any other key.

Keep singing,
