Summary: Kids Anthem?

In our very first 'Songs For Your Kids' lesson, we will be taking you through the anthemic, Baby Shark! If you have kids there is a high probability that you spend half your time with them listening to this song, so why not wow them by learning how to play and sing it!

Chords: Open Chords

For the majority of the song (excluding the key change), you are playing 4 open chord shapes which we've shown below. Please feel free to use other positions if you prefer, or even just the basic versions of the chords (C instead of Cadd9 and Em instead of Em7) if you like. It'll still sound pretty perfect!

The Rhythm: Strum-along fun!

We've put together a basic but accurate strumming pattern for you to use through the entire song. Once again, if you feel as though another pattern fits comfortably and you enjoy playing it, please do so. This isn't an absolute must to get the song sounding correct.
