Hell Yeah - Rev Theory

How to play Hell Yeah - Rev Theory by Rev Theory on guitar

This song is a great beginner pick because it has a bold, driving feel and a steady tempo that makes it satisfying to lock into. You get a strong rock groove without needing a lot of tricky movement, so it feels powerful as soon as you stay in time.

The chart leans on barre shapes for most of the work, with only A and Dm shown as open shapes. The main thing to watch is the opening move between D#m and D#, since that back-and-forth comes up right away and needs clean, confident changes.

Start by practicing the opening progression slowly, then loop just those two shapes until the switch feels automatic. After that, add the rest of the chart in small chunks, and only then bring it up to full tempo while keeping your strums even and 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.
