		<description>Chord memorization is a key, practice it until you feel you are doing it with ease. Then start humming to the sound and next sing to it. but it will be hard at first. For me it took me a day to feel comfortable with it.

it would be also a lot easier if someone is teaching you personally. if not then a video or tutorials will make you progress faster.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;http://www.goarticles.com/cgi-bin/showa.cgi?C=2191743</description>

		<description>It didn't take me that long to learn how to play and sing at the same time, but I practiced for almost the whole day when I first got my guitar. If you already have a sense of rhythm, it shouldn't be that hard. What I did was I basically practiced the strum pattern without singing until my right hand moved naturally to the beat. Then, I just added in my voice. :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I've been playing for almost 2 years now and I'm pretty good at playing.. But when I try to sing, I have a hard time keeping the rhythm. I think that you should just keep practicing until you get it. Everyday, take like 30-45 minutes singing along, and eventually you'll get better.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>It's just a matter of practice.  You have to learn the chords well enough that you make them and change them automatically while you're singing.  This is why you start with very simple (stupid) 2-chord songs like Skip to my Lou and Ten Little Indians.

Also it's easier in keys like A or D, so you don't have to struggle with the dreaded F chord.  F isn't really hard, but it takes some concentration.

Just keep plugging away, you'll get it.  It's not as hard as it might seem at first, so don't get discouraged.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I have been playing for a few months now and I still can't sing along without having to pause inbetween. Jus keep doing what you love because your passion for it will pay off in the end. (:

		<description>Here's a breakdown of the stages of guitar learning and the approximate time it might take you to get there.

- Playing Basic Chords - This is usually the first benchmark most new players reach: The ability to strum and switch between the basic guitar chords. At this point you don't necessarily have the chords memorized and aren't able to play many songs, but you're managing to fret and strum them. This level can be reached within one week.

- Playing easy songs - You've mastered more guitar chords and have been practicing them enough that you've got most of them memorized and are able to strum and switch between them without too much hassle, and without looking at the fretboard when you do. This means you can play songs! This level can be reached in two to three weeks of daily practice, though for many it might be longer.

- Playing Barre and Power Chords - We're moving right along and you're advancing to a level where most self-taught guitarists never go. Barre Chords are much more difficult than open chords and learning these takes extra practice and a whole new set of strength in your fretting hand. It's possible to play most barre chords in two months, quicker for some who practice a lot.

- Fingerpicking - The ability to pluck individual strings and play simple riffs (short solo pieces on individual strings) is a new skill your strumming hand needs to learn. This can usually be achieved in two to three months if you start to learn and play easy guitar tabs.

- Lead Guitar - A Lead guitarist is the guy or girl who's got the audience at his/her beckoning. Playing solo's and using techniques like slurring, vibrato and palm muting is a whole new set of rules and I'd give it three to four months. This might be way off depending on what kind of music we're talking about - playing acoustic solo's might take less time, but playing rock or metal solo's will probably take longer.

- The improviser - A guitarist that can improvise riffs and solos on the spot (and in the middle of a song), have moved from the realm of amateurship to being a pro or semi-pro. Depending on how much talent you have and what you're musical background is, this might take anything from six months to a year.

Please note that these time lengths are given as a very broad estimate and aimed at people with little musical experience. If it takes you longer than a week to learn the basic chords, don't get upset. These times are not set in stone and you have to learn and develop at a pace that's natural and comfortable for you!
