DAY 2: Lesson 4 (The F Major Barre Chord)

The dreaded F Major barre chord. I DO NOT expect you to be able to play this, if you have never really played a barre chord before. The purpose is to get you familiar with the chord and know where to place your hands. Once you know where to place your fingers proceed to the exercise for the day. The daily exercise is where you should be putting all your energy into.

Bonus Lessons

I hope you enjoy these bonus lessons on barre chords. What I have below is all of the main barre chord shapes. With each chord I want you to do the same exercises as we did with the F Major and Bb barre chords. When you watch one of the instructional videos substitute the F or Bb barre chord with one of these below. It will do wonders for you and you will never struggle with a barre chord if you walk through these exercises even just for a couple minutes a day. REMEMBER barre chords are not easy but in time this will help you to play any chord and any shape on the guitar. Also take advantage of the alternative barre chords as well. Wish I had this when I started. Hope it helps you. Go honor God with your playing. REMEMBER worship is a lifestyle.
