Riff 2 for Playing Blues Guitar in E

We're playing the basic Blues, it's very simplistic in nature. What I'm going to show is basically just switching between two chords and essentially carrying the same rhythm. What I'd like to show you here is playing the E and then switching to A. I'm going to show you this right here. This we want to do is, again, start at the second fret. The chords are all going to be on the second fret, and we're going to go (audio demo) and they I'm going to switch to A (audio demo). Basically just playing them in measures of four, meaning four measures. What I'm going to do here is just simply from E and then the A is simply moving your finger down one more string on the D. Showing you the A five. Basically, I'm just going to go. (audio demo) That essentially is your basic E progression just using two chords.
