How to play Home by Good Neighbours on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 6 you play C, F, Am, Dm, the shapes the player above shows.

This song is a great beginner pick because it stays on a small loop and settles into a steady, upbeat feel. You get to focus on clean changes and timing instead of memorizing a long progression, so it feels rewarding fast.

All the shapes here are barre chords, so your main job is getting each grip to ring clearly. The opening move is the back-and-forth between F# and B, and that switch is the one to watch closely because it keeps coming back throughout the song. Keep your fretting hand relaxed and place each shape with confidence.

Start by practicing F# - B very slowly until the change feels smooth, then add the rest of the cycle with the same steady pulse. Once the shapes are clean, loop the full progression with a metronome around the song tempo and only speed up when every chord change feels even.

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.
