Hey there! Welcome to GT and thanks for your question!!

[br]Best thing to do now is exactly what you are doing -- keep with Fundamentals but also work on your chords and strumming by choosing a song to learn from the Made Easy Song Library:

Work through actual songs as you make your way through the Fundamentals course - this will get you applying what you have learned and also building a repertoire! It won't be long before you've improved your basic mechanical skills on the guitar, enough to tackle the intro to Nothing Else Matters - but at the very least, be able to strum along with that one.

Hope this helps, let me know how it goes!!

Big ACDC / Metallica fan, best aspirational song I could realistically shoot for, love the into of Nothing Else Matters, but probably a little too much post that...should I be looking at Eagles...any great ideas gratefully received. Thanks
