Guitar I: Chord Change DIagnostic

Here is a basic chord progression using open position chords:

G         D        Em      C       G        D          C  D   G
|| / / / / || / / / / || / / / / || / / / / || / / / / || / / / / || / / / / || / / / / ||

Each slash represents one beat.
Work through the chords using downstroke strums. Once you have it worked out, try playing it using the syncopated strum.

The following three tracks are recordings of the progression at 3 different tempos (speeds): Slow, Medium and Fast.

Your goal should be to work toward the fast tempo with clear, clean chord sounds and movement from one to the other. Slap on some headphones or ear buds and play-along!
