Learning Rhythm and Swing Chords

I’ve written out four different chord shapes for:
C, C#dim, Dm7 and G7.

Use these chords to play the beginning of 100’s of songs including:
“Dream,” “Heart and Soul,” “Blue Moon,” “I’ve Got Rhythm,” “Twenty Six Miles Across the Sea”

Play them as you want, combine the different positions,
and refer to Gerald Ross’s videos
on how to play swing chords for instruction.
