A chord progression is when we progress from one chord to the next. The 1st chord progression to learn consists of 4 chords,
1, 6, 4, 5 or C Am F G.
On the video notice that its easier and quicker to go down 3 notes from C to Am rather than going up 6.
The following songs all use this chord progression;
We go together (Grease)
Those magic changes (Grease)
Stand By Me (Ben E. King)
Stay (Jackson Browne)
Baby (Justin Beiber)

The same 4 chords in a different order open up many other possibilities. C, G, Am, F
The reason certain chords sound nice with parts of a song is that the same notes are being sung as in the chord being played, say on piano or guitar.
If the singer is singing the notes C, E,G for example, the guitar player plays the chord of C which uses the same notes.
Suggest one chord for each bar of this melody.
