How to play Sabrina Carpenter - Please Please Please (Lyric Video) by Sabrina Carpenter on guitar

This song is a great beginner pick because it sits in a bright, pop-friendly groove and feels steady once you lock into the pulse. You get a catchy progression that repeats enough to build confidence, so it is satisfying to play even before everything is perfect.

The chart mixes open shapes like E and A with barre shapes like F#m and F#, so your fretting hand has to switch between easy grips and more demanding ones. The change to watch out for is the move from E into F#m and F#, since that shift can slow you down if you do not keep your hand close to the neck.

Start by looping the opening progression slowly until the shape changes feel automatic. Then add the rest of the song in small sections, keeping your strumming even and relaxed. Once the changes land cleanly, bring it up to tempo and focus on staying smooth rather than playing harder.

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.
