How to play "Indifferent" on guitar by Megan Moroney

[General Tips:]
Tuning: Standard tuning with a capo on the 4th fret to match the song's key.
Tone: Opt for a clear, articulate acoustic sound. If you're using an electric guitar,
set it to a clean channel with minimal effects to keep the tone pure and direct.

[Intro & Verse Chords:]
- The song begins with a progression of D, F#, Bm, G. This combination sets a
reflective and somewhat liberated mood.
- Use a steady strumming pattern, keeping the rhythm consistent to support the
lyrical narrative of moving past caring about a past relationship.

Chord Transition Tips:
- Transitioning between D and F# might require some practice as it involves a
significant hand shift. Practice moving efficiently between these chords to
maintain the song's flow.
- Bm to G is a common transition in many songs; focus on moving your index finger
from the barre position in Bm to the third fret of the sixth string for G.

[Chorus Dynamics:]
- The chorus should be more dynamic to emphasize the emotional evolution from
caring to indifference.
- Strum with a bit more force during the chorus, particularly on chords F#7 and G,
to highlight the lyrics' dismissive tone.

[Bridge Technique:]
- The bridge introduces a reflective, almost conversational tone. Play this section
slightly softer, focusing on the lyrical content about being unaffected by the ex's
presence in life.
- The transition between "I'm indifferent, I'm just livin'" and "When your mama calls"
should be seamless, maintaining the narrative without interrupting the song's pace.

[Common Mistakes:]
- Avoid rushing the tempo, especially during transitions between verses and choruses.
Keeping a steady pace is crucial for conveying the song's message effectively.
- Be careful not to strum too harshly; although the song is about emotional disengagement,
the guitar should not overpower the vocals.

"Indifferent" by Megan Moroney captures a narrative of emotional detachment and personal
growth after a breakup. The song uses a clever mix of lyricism and melodic hooks to express
