Most of these chords are beginner-friendly, especially C, Dm, Em, F, G, and Am. G/B is just a G chord with B in the bass, so you can play a regular G or try the easy G/B fingering. F can be tricky for some, but try the mini-barre version if full barre is tough. No barre chords like B or F#m here, so it’s a great song for practicing smooth transitions!
