How to play Too Sweet by Hozier on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 5 you play D, E, F, A, A#, C and more, the shapes the player above shows.

The chart has seven main chords: A#, D#, Gm, F, D, Dm and Am. It also catches A, C and G in passing, and you can leave those out at first. A#, D# and Gm are barre chords. The others are open shapes. The change you will play most is A# to D#, 9 times in the chart, so practise that one first.

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.
