Playing single notes is OK, but these are single notes, not chords. Chord means "3 notes ringing simultaneously", 3 stacked intervals from any scale.
You can take any note from the chord and play it, and take another note from another chord, and play that, and this is the basics of improvisation. But, you need to support some harmony, so usually you play these notes in the context (on top of chords being played). Well, you could follow root notes of the chords, but there are various types of chords, you can't tell if it's major minor or diminished, which are basic categories. I advise you to look up into chords, because they are very important, but in the same time, practice following them with the single notes - both ways are very beneficial for you as a musician. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
