Measures and "D"

A measure is a small segment of music. If you look at the music on the screen, you will see that I shaded 3 measures for you. I shaded measure #1, #6 and #8.
Measures are used to organize music. For example if I say, play measure #5 for me, you will know exactly where to start playing.
New also on this page is "D". Instead of seeing a number 2, you will see a "D", which you will play with your #2 finger.
Also notice that this song contains 8 measures. Previous songs were only 4 measures.
If you play this song correctly and smoothly, you will recognize the tune! Pg 1 Pg 2 Pg 3 Pg 4 Pg 5 Pg 6 Pg 7 You are Here Pg 9 Pg 10 Lesson 3
