How to play 3 Doors Down - Kryptonite by 3DoorsDown on guitar

Kryptonite is a great beginner song because the groove is steady, the progression loops clearly, and it feels strong right away when you lock in with the beat. You get a simple, driving rock feel that is easy to recognize and fun to repeat.

You can start with open shapes like A, G, D, and Em, but the song also asks for barre shapes like Bm, so your fretting hand needs to stay relaxed and ready. The change to watch most closely is moving cleanly between the open chord and Bm in the opening progression A - Bm - G - A.

Practice the chord order slowly first, then repeat that opening progression until the switches feel automatic. After that, play along with the track at a comfortable pace, keeping your changes even and your strumming steady as you build up to full speed.

Use the play-along above to follow each chord change in time with the music, or learn the shapes first with the chord diagrams below.
