    Simple. This has nothing to do with chord changes and everything to do with “playing by feel”. Get into the rhythm, a rhythm that you’re doing automatically so nothing you do with your fretting hand stops it.

    Use one chord and just start grooving, be-bopping, whatever you want to call it. Then, turn on a metronome and get your groove to line up with the steady beat. When you can watch TV and keep a steady rhythm, whatever rhythm, then you can change chords.

    One of the most important points Tony teaches is to break things down so you are only trying to learn or improve on one thing at a time.

    You may be at the stage of just using the simplest rhythm of down, down, down, down. If so, do that with a metronome. Find videos that give you exercises that make using a metronome fun. In a week, you’ll be changing chords and keeping rhythm without even thinking about it.
