In this lesson, I'll show you a technique that borrows from country chicken pickin', but is usable in many blues songs. This technique is based on an E form, where we alternate between several different two-note chords, playing the root note in between. It may feel awkward at first, but with practice, your muscle memory will improve.

Key:G
Tuning:Standard
