How to play vampire by Olivia Rodrigo on guitar

This song is a strong beginner pick because the progression is simple, memorable, and sits in a steady mid-tempo groove. You can focus on clean changes and feel the tension and release without having to fight a busy part.

You can lean on the open shapes F, A, Dm, C, G, and Am, but the harder barre shapes A#, Fm, A#m, and Gm will take more hand pressure. The main change to watch is the opening move from A# to F to A and back to A#, since it asks you to shift quickly between a barre shape and easier grips.

Start by looping the opening progression slowly and making every chord ring clearly. Then add the rest of the chart in small chunks, keeping your strums even, and only raise the tempo once the changes feel automatic.

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.
