Spooky, Scary Skeletons (Undead Tombstone Remix)

How to play Spooky, Scary Skeletons (Undead Tombstone Remix) by Andrew Gold on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 2 you play Am, F, C, Dm, A#, Bm and more, the shapes the player above shows.

This song is a fun pick if you want something catchy, spooky, and upbeat to lock into a steady groove. At about 120 BPM, it feels lively without being rushed, so you can focus on clean changes and a confident rhythm.

You will use a mix of open shapes and barre shapes, so it gives you both comfort and a workout. The open chords are G, D, Em, and C, while the harder shapes are Bm, C#m, F#, F#m, and B. Watch the move from Bm to G and back again, since that shift sets up the opening progression and can trip you up if your fretting hand is late.

Start by looping the opening progression slowly, then isolate the barre changes until they feel even. After that, add the full sequence at a tempo you can control, and only speed up when each change sounds clean. Once the shapes are solid, play through the song several times in a row to build stamina and keep the groove steady.

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.
