LESSON 4 — The CHORUS
The chorus section introduces a new chord progression along with a short melodic riff that adds contrast and interest to the arrangement.
The progression moves through F/C – Em7 – Dm – C – Gm7 – C, creating a softer, more expressive feel compared to the verse.
The first time through, play the chords as written, keeping your strumming smooth and even.
When you repeat the sequence, replace the final C chord with the riff shown below. This adds a melodic feature that leads seamlessly into the next section.
