505 – The EASIEST Arctic Monkeys Song to Play on Guitar?

Here’s how to play 505 by Arctic Monkeys from their 2007 album Favourite Worst Nightmare.

This is probably the most popular two chord songs ever. Both those chords are minor; D minor and E minor respectively. In the video, we’ll look at how these chords can be played as open chords (for beginners) and also as barre chords (for intermediates).

As I write this, the song is the bands fourth most streamed song on Spotify, so it’s well worth learning and jamming along to the original recording!
