By writing vocals first, this is both an intimidating but exciting venture. Reason being, vocal lines can lend themselves to many, many possibilities with chords. On the flip side, this can also be very difficult as the writing of vocals may not always be in perfect time. Whatever the case, I would first make sure your song is the way you want it. You have all the sections figured out, and you are set on the structure of the song.

To tackle this, I first need to know your current level of knowledge with music theory, and chord use? Where are you at on the instrument at this point?
