Last Thing You Need

How to play Last Thing You Need by Morgan Wallen on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 1 you play G, Am, C, D, A, Em, the shapes the player above shows.

Last Thing You Need is a good beginner play-along because it sits in a steady groove and lets you focus on clean changes instead of flashy moves. You can keep the feel relaxed and even, which makes it a solid song for building confidence at around 120 BPM.

The chart uses barre shapes for every chord, so your main job is getting comfortable with smooth pressure and quick hand shifts. The opening move from G# to A#m to C# to D# is the one to watch, since it asks for four different shapes in a row without losing the pulse.

Start by looping the opening progression very slowly, making each shape ring clearly before you move on. Then practice the same cycle with a steady count, and only speed up once your changes feel automatic. When that feels easy, play along with the full chart and keep your strumming simple.

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.
