I'm sure If I keep at these 3 songs for months, I'll get it but I guarantee I'll be sick of the course by then. I just keep trying to play the 3 chords and not always with "that song". Learn the chord, that's whats important.
That's exactly what I do. Try to play the song. Then play the chords over and over until I feel like I can try the song again.
