Learn how to play 'No Surprises' by Radiohead with this easy guitar tutorial! I’ll guide you through the basic chords, slash chords, and show you how to play the cool chord melody intro. No barre chords required!
The verse is simple, just a couple easy switches. Some people use the Bm chord, but it's actually Gmaj7/B - which LOOKS tough, but is wayyyyy easier. There's also Em and A, and a couple other simple chords.
But the most fun part to play, in my opinion, is the chord melody during the intro, and the instrumental parts. With the correct fingering (which I teach step-by-step) it's actually very easy to play. Let's learn how to play No Surprises on guitar!
