How To Play The Ford Song On Guitar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Ford Song is composed of four chords, making it particularly easy even for beginning guitarists. The chords are G, C, D, and Em (or E minor)<\/strong>. Knowing these chords can make playing this song quite simple! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s go through each chord one by one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

G Chord<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To form a G chord, start by placing your third finger on the sixth string at the third fret. Then place your second finger on the fifth string at the second fret and your first finger on the fourth string at the first fret. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, strum all six strings but don’t forget to mute any open strings that don’t have fingers placed on them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C Chord<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For a C chord, place your third finger on the fifth string at the third fret and then place your second finger on the fourth string at the second fret. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Place your first finger on the second string at the first fret and strum all six strings again but be sure to mute any open strings that aren’t being played.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D Chord<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To form a D chord, place your third finger on the fourth string at the second fret and then place your first finger on both of these strings-the second string at just below that same fourth fret and also an additional barre across all six strings below that same note. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again, be sure to strum all six strings but mute any open ones that aren’t being played!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Em Chord (E Minor)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To form an Em or E minor chord, start by placing your third finger on both of these strings- the fifth string just below that same fourth fret and an additional barre across all six strings below that same note. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then place your second finger right behind it between those two notes- on both of these strings- the fourth string just above that same fifth fret and an additional barre across all six strings right above that same note. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, strum all six strings but don’t forget to mute any open ones not being played!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
