Don't We

How to play Don't We by Morgan Wallen on guitar

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

This song is a good beginner pick because it stays in a small loop and lets you focus on clean changes instead of a lot of moving parts. At about 120 BPM, it should feel steady and familiar once you lock into the cycle. You can use it to build confidence with timing and smooth transitions.

You get one open shape, E, and the other shapes are barre chords - G#m, F#, and B - so the main challenge is keeping your fretting hand relaxed. The change to watch most is moving from E into the barre shapes without rushing or muting strings. Since the progression keeps cycling, that shift will come up again and again.

Start by learning E to G#m to F# to E very slowly, then repeat until the hand motion feels automatic. Next, add B into the loop if your chart uses it in the full song, and keep the changes even. Once the shapes are solid, bring the tempo up little by little until you can stay with the track.

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.
