I'll bet that you have played four chords per measure before. If you have played the blues or rock songs, especially those from the 50s, you must have played something like A-A6-A7-A6 in one measure.

I think using 16th notes as place markers for chords would work. For instance you are playing the song I'm a Man you need to place chords like this: E for each 1e+,a,2e+,a,3e+,a beat, a D on the 4e+ and A for beat 4a. That would be 8 chord strums and three chords per measure.

Note one beat consists of 1e+a or one eee and a with the chords on the beats being held 1e+.

I hope this is not too confusing.
