Jesus Stepped by The Clark Family is centred on C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 10 chords: C, Dm, G, F, Am, E, A, D, Bm and Em.

The backbone of the song is G – C – F – G (V – I – IV – V in C major). In solfa, that is soh – doh – fah – soh. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Beginner-friendly: on guitar almost every chord is an open shape, which makes this a good song to learn early on.
