How to play Shayad by Arijit Singh on guitar

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

Shayad is a smooth, emotional song that feels steady and reflective on guitar. At about 80 BPM, you can let each chord ring and focus on clean changes, which makes it a good intermediate piece to build control and confidence.

Most of the song sits on barre shapes, so your fretting hand needs to stay relaxed and precise. The easier open shape is F, but the main challenge is moving through C#, G#, D#, and A# without losing the pulse. Watch the opening progression closely, since it sets the shape of the whole song.

Start by looping C# - G# - D# - A# slowly until the changes feel automatic. Then add the rest of the chord flow and practice in short sections, keeping the rhythm even. When that feels solid, bring it up to full tempo and aim for smooth, connected 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.
