Until I Found You

How to play Until I Found You by Stephen Sanchez on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 1 you play A, Dm, C#m, D, E, the shapes the player above shows.

This song is a great pick if you want a catchy, emotional tune that feels smooth once it locks in. You get a steady mid-tempo groove around 120 BPM, and the progression gives you a classic pop feel that is satisfying to keep moving through.

You will mix open shapes with barre shapes, so the main challenge is staying relaxed while switching cleanly. The open shapes are Dm and F, while A#, D#m, and D# are the harder barre shapes. Watch the jump in the opening progression, especially from A# to D#m and back again, so your hand stays ready for that change.

Start by practicing the opening progression slowly, one chord at a time, until the shifts feel automatic. Then loop the hardest move between A# and D#m, and add Dm once that change is steady. After that, play the full song at a comfortable pace and gradually bring it up to 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.
