You’ve got a bunch of easy open chords here like Em, G, C, D, and even some beginner-friendly ones like Am missing, so this is great for newer players. Watch out for Bm though, since it’s a barre chord and might take some practice. Take it slow, use a capo if needed, and focus on smooth transitions between chords. Have fun!
