Sweet Melody

How to play Sweet Melody by Little Mix on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 3 you play Em, Dm, A#, C#, D, C#m and more, the shapes the player above shows.

Sweet Melody is a strong choice if you want a pop track that feels driving and polished at about 120 BPM. You get a tight, energetic groove that rewards clean changes and steady timing, so it feels satisfying once you lock in the pulse.

The chart uses a mix of open shapes and barre shapes, so you will move between easier grips and more demanding ones. The opening progression Gm - Fm - C# - E is the main thing to watch, because the jump from the barre shapes into E needs a smooth hand reset.

Start by looping the opening progression slowly until the shape changes feel automatic. Then add the rest of the open chords, keep the rhythm even, and only raise the tempo when each switch sounds clean. Once you can play it without hesitating, bring it up to full speed.

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.
