How to play "Nothin' Crazy" on guitar
[Capo and Intro]
- Place the capo on the 2nd fret. This will allow you to use
open chord shapes while matching the original key.
- The intro features a simple fingerstyle riff on the G chord.
Practice the hammer-on from the open A string to the 2nd fret
and the open D string pick for a rhythmic feel.
[Verse Strumming]
- Use a light strumming pattern for the verses, focusing on
downstrokes to keep it mellow.
- Transition between G and C chords smoothly, allowing the
lyrics to stand out.
[Pre-Chorus Build-up]
- Increase the dynamic as you move into the pre-chorus with
Am, Bm, C, and D chords. This builds tension leading into
the chorus.
[Chorus Intensity]
- The chorus is the highlight; use a mix of down and up
strums to create a more filled-out sound.
- Emphasize transitions between G, Em, D, and Am for
emotional impact, reflecting the lyrics' playful yet
forward nature.
[Break Section]
- The break after the second chorus introduces a dialogue-like
section. Use Am, G, C, and D to underscore this intimate
moment.
- Keep strumming soft and controlled here to let the
conversational lyrics shine.
[Outro Technique]
- End with a repeat of the intro riff to bring the song full
circle.
- Maintain a gentle touch to echo the song's whimsical but
reflective ending.
Common mistakes:
- Overplaying the intro riff. Keep it simple and let the
melody breathe.
- Forgetting to increase dynamics in the chorus. This section
should feel more intense and filled with anticipation.
