Camels and Gorillas

To play the song Camels and Gorillas, we will use one-finger chords, and a rock beat from the rhythm section. In this song, there are two bars of the C chord followed by two bars of the G chord. The chord symbols are written above the staff.

Press the C key once and let the chord play for two bars, then press the G key and let the G chord play for two bars. Repeat the song, as indicated by the repeat dots, then press the stop or ending button. Remember to let go of the chord keys as soon as you have played them.
