This week, we added the G chord on the guitar and the C chord on the ukulele.
Play along with This Land is Your Land on the video!

The pattern is
1 1 1 1
4 4 4 4
1 1 1 1
5 5 5 5
1 1 1 1

What does that mean? Well, in each key, there is a “home” chord. In major, it’s the tonic.

Since we’re putting this song in G on the uke, the numbers would be (it’s simply alphabetical)
G A B C D E F
1 2 3 4 5 6 7

So G is 1
C is 4
and D is 5

So:
G G G G
C C C C
G G G G
D D D D
G G G G

Can you figure it out for guitar?
Same pattern, different key.

D E F# G A B C#
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
