This beginner-friendly tutorial walks you through the full chord progression for You Should Probably Leave, using simple shapes and an easy acoustic strumming feel. You’ll learn the intro groove, the main downstroke pattern, and how to switch smoothly between the repeating Em–G–C–G progression.

We’ll also break down the chorus pattern (Du-U-udu) and show you how to lock into the timing so the whole thing flows naturally. It’s a great song for practicing smooth chord changes and a relaxed, pocket-style groove.
