The I-V is the simplest possible progression — just the tonic and dominant. It's the foundation of children's songs, folk anthems, and countless early rock and roll grooves.

D major is a bright, ringing key that suits acoustic strumming. D, A, G, and Bm are your main chords, and everything but Bm sits in open position. The Bm barre is the one hurdle for beginners.
