Being May and all, I’ve been playing some Mary hymns on the guitar, and wanted to share some of the chords with you. I only dabble in guitar, so these chords are super easy to play. These Hail Holy Queen chords are for beginners. If I can play it, you can play it. Trust me. 😉

I know it’s really frustrating when I’m searching for Catholic guitar chords online, and I can’t find them, so hopefully this will help some folks out. 😉 Happy May!
Thank you so much for doing this! One question what type of strumming pattern are you using?
Just whatever. I make it up as I go. 😉
Useful info. Lucky me I discovered your site by chance, and I’m surprised why this twist of fate didn’t happened in advance!
I bookmarked it.
