Q: how can you identify chords by ear easier?
A: start by writing chord charts for all your favorite songs. get the chords by unpausing-pausing very quickly. it's best to work with an offline version of the file on a simple player, so that it can unpause and pause very quickly. just listen for every note you can, and identify them on your instrument. after doing this for a while and writing down chord charts for a few songs, you will become better and better aquainted for how people are using chords in music, and soon you won't have to listen to the individual notes anymore, it will be like hearing a sentence and just knowing it without thinking about the individual letters or even the words
