Last week I managed to teach myself how to play chasing cars by coldplay on guitar. I do not know any notes on the guitar or any chords but I taught myself the two notes played at the beginning and from there I used trial and error to work out the chords. It is very important to know the notes, chords and theory of an instrument because it makes learning new songs a lot easier and quicker to learn. Being able to read music means that you have the correct notes in front of you and you can learn to play it a lot quicker. I am beginning to learn some notes and chords, so I can learn new songs on the guitar, and soon I will learn how to read tabs, so that I can play songs and learn chords a lot easier.
