Coach tips
- ✦Creep uses only 4 chords the whole song: G, B7, C, and Cm — once you know these 4 shapes you can play the entire song from start to finish.
- ✦The Cm chord is the trickiest shape here. Finger it as: x-3-5-5-4-3 (mini-barre at fret 3) or simplify further to just strum x-3-5-5-x-x using your ring and pinky fingers.
- ✦The B7 chord (x-2-1-2-0-2) is an open chord that every beginner should learn — in Creep it creates that tense, dramatic sound right before the C chord arrives each time.
- ✦Each chord in Creep lasts one full bar of 4 beats. Use a simple down-down-down-strum pattern (D-D-D-DU) and let each chord ring clearly before switching — the slow tempo at around 92 BPM gives you plenty of time to make clean changes.
