"Hi, John Aguilar again, we just did a G rock, now we're going to do C Rock, with a C chord. This is a C chord. Not so easy to do in the beginning, but you do have to learn how to play the C chord when you play guitar, and here it is. Third finger, we're going to have to use three fingers now, third finger is going to be at the third fret of the A string, second finger is going to be at the second fret of the D string, and our first finger is going to be at the first fret of the B string. And there's a C chord. To play G Rock, we're going to move this finger about. Two strums like that move it there now to the second finger to the G string. Two strums. And we're going to move it back and forth. You can use that for a lot of things. It's not too rocky, but it gives you something to do, instead of just playing a C chord. And there is C Rock on the guitar."
