Practise the barre chord Bm

Practise the change: Bm ↔ A
Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
