Horse With No Name

Now... it's song time. Like a real song.

I chose Horse With no Name initially because I love the song, but I'm really glad I did because it was really easy to learn and great to practice strumming. Here is a video on how to play and what I did was paused it on the part where the strum pattern was up on the screen and just kept running through that.

One way to make it a little more accurate (for lack of better words) is to add a little extra to it. Here is an example:

And here is the actual song! Enjoy!!
