Bebe Rexha & Faithless - New Religion

How to play Bebe Rexha & Faithless - New Religion by Bebe Rexha on guitar

This song is a great beginner play-along because the groove sits at a steady 120 BPM and the B minor feel gives you a strong, moody pulse. You can keep it relaxed while still sounding full, so it is a good one for building confidence and timing.

The chart mixes open shapes like G and Em with barre shapes like Bm and F#, so you get a little of both worlds. The main thing to watch is the move from Bm to F# and then to G - that shift asks you to stay smooth while your fretting hand changes position.

Start by looping the opening progression slowly, then practice the barre shapes on their own until they feel clean. Next, connect Bm - F# - G - Em in time, and only after that bring it up toward full tempo. Keep the changes even and let the rhythm stay steady.

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.
