hate that i made you love me

How to play hate that i made you love me by Ariana Grande on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 1 you play Am, E, F, C, Em, G and more, the shapes the player above shows.

This song is a strong pick if you want a moody pop groove that still feels direct and singable. At about 120 BPM, you get a steady pulse that lets you focus on clean changes and smooth timing, so it feels rewarding once it starts locking in.

You can ease into it with the open F shape, but most of the chart uses barre shapes, so your fretting hand needs to stay relaxed and accurate. The main change to watch is the opening move from A#m to F, then into F# and C#, since that shift sets the feel for the rest of the song.

Start by looping just A#m - F - F# - C# until the shapes feel automatic. Then add the rest of the progression in short sections, keeping the tempo slow enough for clean switches. Once the changes are solid, bring it up to full speed and aim for even, confident transitions.

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.
