Rahul, Normally before starting to play chords, one does a number of finger and strumming exercises. Once the fingers begin moving up and down the fret board, playing chords and changing chords becomes easier.

Subject: Re: [AI] Challenges in Learning How to Play the Guitar 1.Rahul Count your frets and strings. Get the position of each chord in your mind eg. C major will have C,E,G,c. Try only 3 note chords first-eg. C,E,G then bring the fourth note into place. 2. Bhavya - you must not move your fingers off the neck of the guitar. your thumb must be correctly placed. Then when you shift chords you have to move one finger at a time. Never lift your full hand off the strings. Keep your fingers pressed near the fret but not on it. 3. Its delicate work. Go to a good teacher especially of the old school and learn the correct technique.
