Welcome to my “”Peaceful Easy Feeling” chord chart!  You will need to capo the second fret for this one. We will be calling the chords by their form names, not the actual names on the chords. For example, the D form (shape) is actually a E chord when played up two frets. (Because of the capo) The chords for this song: D, Dsus, Dsus/G, G, A7, Em.

This is a great tune to play on acoustic guitar at a party or at a gig.

The strumming pattern is: 

D U D U D U D U

1 + 2 + 3 +4+ Accent beats 2 and 4. 

There is a variation to this pattern that occurs at times. (Watch the video lesson for more information.)

D U D U  U D U

1 + 2 + +4+ Accent 2 3+ and 4

The song is mostly straight forward strumming, watch the video for how to learn it in levels.
