That’s So True

How to play That’s So True by Gracie Abrams on guitar

That’s So True is a great beginner play-along because the tempo sits in a comfortable pop groove and the harmony stays clear and repetitive. You get a steady, upbeat feel that is easy to lock into once you hear the pattern.

The chart uses barre shapes for every chord shown, so the main challenge is getting clean pressure and smooth shifts. The opening move is F#m to C# to G# to C#, so watch the jump into G# and back to C# - that is where you will want to keep your hand relaxed and ready.

Start by fretting each shape one at a time and letting every note ring cleanly. Then loop the opening progression slowly, making the F#m to C# change automatic before adding G# and C#. Once that feels solid, bring it up to tempo and focus on even timing rather than 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.
