DAISIES

How to play DAISIES by Justin Bieber on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 1 you play G, Em, C, D, the shapes the player above shows.

This song is a great beginner pick because it stays in one repeating loop and lets you focus on clean changes instead of learning lots of new material. At about 120 BPM, it feels steady and upbeat, so you can build confidence while keeping the groove moving.

The main shapes are all barre chords, so your fretting hand will need to stay firm and accurate. The opening run is G# - Fm - C# - D#, and the change to watch most closely is the quick move between Fm and C# since that is where slips usually happen.

Start by fretting each chord one at a time and checking that every note rings clearly. Then practice the four-chord cycle slowly, making the switches without stopping. Once that feels smooth, bring it up to tempo and repeat the loop until your hands remember the pattern.

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.
