Hello Goran. I recommend you

Hello Goran. I recommend you follow the Hole Changes approach taught in Accompaniment Studies 3 and 5. In this approach you'll be playing a single note (or two-note combination, shake, octave, etc.) on whichever hole you feel sounds best for each chord (make sure to use a nice tremolo to make it sound good). Explore all the hole options.
