3 Easy Chord Songs To Motivate Your Students

When my student’s attention starts to dwindle or they start fighting me on every thing I ask them to do, I have a few songs in my arsenal that I can pull out to reign them back in. They’re all chord based and you can sing along to them. The kids always light up when I bring these out! And if your kids don’t get excited about the three I chose here, you can always ask them for ideas. I’m including links to my own video tutorials which include links to the chord charts. I like the email my students the video links just in case they forget what I taught them in the lesson.

STAY WITH ME by Sam Smith

STAY by Rhianna

CLOCKS by Coldplay

As you can see, these songs are super easy to play, but the kids have a great time with them. What chord songs do you like to play?
