I mention 5ths in the beginning of the video. I play 5ths but then quickly dive in to 4ths as I'm playing. So think 5ths and 4ths as I talk. Of course an inverted 5th is a 4th and vice versa.
Download the PDFs and then YOU put the chord names in there!
Put the chords in and memorize :-)
Just some simple lines and rhythms. I think you should memorize it and play it with a metronome. If you use it for sight reading, that's ok, but I think of this more for improvising. Nothing fancy, but you can hear the tune.
PS - you have to put the chords in. it's important you do that.
