Bad Angel

How to play Bad Angel by Anyma, LISA on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 3 you play A, A#, G, Am, Gm, F and more, the shapes the player above shows.

This song is worth learning because it sits in a dark, modern groove and feels steady at about 120 BPM. You get a tight, driving progression that sounds dramatic without being overly busy, so it is a good fit if you want something intermediate that still feels cool and playable.

The chart uses a mix of open and barre shapes, so the main challenge is moving cleanly between the easier C and G shapes and the harder barre chords like C#, A#, Cm, A#m, G#, Gm, Fm, and D#. The change to watch most is the opening move from C to C# and then into A# and Cm, since that run can feel abrupt at first.

Start by looping just the opening progression slowly, then add the rest of the chord changes one at a time. Once your fingers know the shapes, practice the transitions in pairs, then play through the full sequence at a relaxed tempo before bringing it up to 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.
