Cm Dm D#m F Oh, I don't belong here [Outro] G B7 C Cm Dm D#m F G How to play "Creep" by Ernest on guitar This rendition of the song uses the classic progression known in the original version by Radiohead, incorporating chords like G, B7, C, and Cm, along with a few additions for a unique touch. Chords used: G, B7, C, Cm, Dm, D#m, F Playing Style: - The intro and verses should be played with a gentle yet firm strumming pattern, focusing on the emotional delivery of the lyrics. The progression from G to B7 and then to C and Cm adds a brooding, melancholic feel, matching the song’s reflective nature. - The chorus increases in intensity with the lyrics' emotional content. Here, the strumming should be more forceful and pronounced, emphasizing the song's theme of alienation and self-doubt. Common Mistakes: - Not managing the transition from C to Cm smoothly can disrupt the flow of the song. Ensure you are comfortable switching between these chords as they are central to the song’s emotional impact. - Overstrumming in the verses can overshadow the vocals. Maintain a balance that allows the lyrics to be the focal point. Transitions: - Pay close attention to the emotional build-up that leads from the verses to the chorus. This transition should feel like a natural crescendo of both musical intensity and lyrical desperation. Lyrics meaning: "Creep" explores themes of self-awareness and the feeling of not fitting in, expressed through stark, raw lyrics. The protagonist views themselves as unworthy, contrasting their perceived ordinariness with the 'specialness' of others. Remember: - Ensure your guitar is well-tuned, especially when playing with a capo, to keep the chords sounding clear and accurate. - Connect emotionally with the song’s lyrics to convey the powerful feelings of isolation and longing through your guitar playing, enhancing the listener’s emotional experience.
