Here are three ways to play “Treat You Better” by Shawn Mendes. Why three ways? Basically to give you options depending on your skill set!

The first way is closest to the original, using our “Consecutive 10ths” to outline each chord.

The second way incorporates the same chords, just filling them out with barre chords.

The third way is the easiest: using open chords with our capo on the 6th fret.

I also go through the solo capo-ed and not capo-ed! Dig.

Here are the chords:

Verse
Bbm – Ab – Gb.Ab
*(Capo 6: Em – D – C.D)

Chorus
Bbm – Ab – Gb – Db
*(Capo 6: Em – D – C – G)

Bridge
Bbm – Ab/C – Db – Gb
Bbm – Ab/C – Gb – Gb
*(Capo 6: Em – D – G – C | Em – D – C – C)

Check out the tabs and have fun!
