How to play Bob Seger Old Time Rock n Roll by Unknown on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 4 you play A, D, G, Dm, Am, the shapes the player above shows.

This is a fun beginner-friendly rock song that feels steady and familiar right away. You get a classic driving groove at about 120 BPM, so it is easy to settle into the pulse and keep the energy moving.

The chart uses barre shapes throughout, so expect your fretting hand to work a bit harder than on open chords. The main change to watch is the opening move from C# to F# to B and back to C#, since that cycle needs clean, quick shifts to stay smooth.

Start by practicing each shape slowly until it rings clearly, then loop the opening progression in time. Once that feels comfortable, play along with a slow count, then bring it up to full tempo and focus on even changes and steady strumming.

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.
