Les Paul Chords are three or more notes played together. When you see
these
groups of notes on sheet music start saying aloud which chord is
being represented.
Of course in the beginning this will go slowly. You could start
daily for
about 15 minutes and probably quickly become proficient in a
matter of weeks
(if you are already reading sheet music). You will need a chord
chart so
that you know which chords you are reading. Visit
The Struggling Church Musician
and go to the free downloads
page for a chord chart of the
primary chords
in each key. This is notation not the keyboard picture. This
will help you to quickly see chords in notated music.
Buying your guitar, Chord introduction, Strumming, Tuning up, Understanding the different guitar playing styles. Scales, Harmony (naming chords and understanding its functions), Technique (bending, vibrato, on, off, picking, slide, etc), Improvising.

Guitar Pro Daily practice will also make you more proficient here. But
instead of reading
the bass clef in sheet music to know what chords look like written
out, take
an easy song that stays in one key and that lists the chord
letters above
the melody. Go through the chord chart and find the primary
chords
for that key. Practice playing those chords several times and
then
try them with the song. Work on a new key as soon as you feel
proficient
in the current one. Go through the chords using the circle of
fifths or fourths
(also a copy of this at
The Struggling Church Musician in the free
downloads page). In no time at
all you will be comfortable playing these chords and ready to move
on to
more!
