Easy Guitar Song - Teach Your Children Guitar Lesson

Crosby Stills Nash & Young Guitar Lesson – “Teach Your Children”

Learn how to play the song “Teach Your Children” by Crosby Stills Nash & Young with this easy to follow guitar lesson. Teach Your Children was written by Graham Nash. It was written while Nash was still a member of the group “The Hollies”, but it was never released with them. Instead, it was released on the album “Deja Vu “ by by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young released in 1970. You can learn more about the history behind this song by reading the article over at Wikipedia by clicking here.

This easy song is considered a Country rock, Folk rock tune, which was a very popular style of music back in the 1960’s. It is a fairly easy song to play and uses the chords: D Major, G Major, A Major and B Minor.

The only challenge will be the switch to the B Minor Chord. I know, we hear B Minor and we automatically think its a difficult chord. I promise you it isn’t, at least not this version of B Minor. Just practice switching to the B Minor over and over again in this song until you can do it without error or delay.
