How to play She & Him - I Thought I Saw Your Face Today by Unknown on guitar

This song is a great beginner pick because it sits in a friendly, steady groove and lets you hear the harmony clearly. You get a simple, singable feel that works well at about 120 BPM, so it is rewarding without being overwhelming.

Most of the chart uses open shapes, which makes it easier to get started. The main thing to watch is the opening move from D to G to Dm to Am - that shift asks you to move cleanly between shapes while keeping the rhythm even.

Start by looping the opening progression slowly and making each change sound clean. Then add the full tempo in small steps, staying relaxed and counting through the bar so your changes land on time.

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.
