CAGED Open Chord Exercises

    For the strumming exercises below you are to play the chord progression in quarter notes. Each exercise has 4 measures and should be played in standard time. In the audio example above my metronome was set at 75 bpm.

    Remember a quarter note gets one beat so that we will strum the chords on each beat. Chord diagrams for the chords used can be found below the exercises.
