If you are looking for an easy guitar song then ‘Something Just Like This’ by The Chainsmokers and Coldplay can be the perfect one. This song is the second single of their ( The Chainsmokers ) debut album, Memories… Do Not Open. Listeners of this song say, it’s a song about a relationship between two people but there is a spiritual side to it.
The song starts with an intro riff which is fortunately very easy and beginner-friendly. It has only 4 chords and a couple of strumming patterns that revolve around the whole song.
The original song is in the key of B minor and follows a chord progression of G(add9)–Asus–Bm–Asus. But, in this tutorial you will learn an easy version of this song with a capo on the second fret.
Note: Make sure to go through the chord progression so that you don’t stuck in between playing the whole song. Try to slow down until you are comfortable enough to play the whole song in the original tempo. It is not compulsory to play the song as it is, you can add your own style and flavor to it.

[Verse]
I’ve been [G]reading books of [F]old
The [G]legends, and the [Am]myths
Achil[G]les and his [F]gold
Hercu[G]les and his [Am]gifts
Spi[G]derman’s cont[F]rol
And [G]batman with his [Am]fists
[G]And clearly [F]I don’t see myself [G]upon that [Am]list
[Pre-Chorus]
But she said, where’[G]d you wanna [F]go?
How much [G]you wanna [Am]risk?
I’m not [G]looking for [F]somebody
With some [G]superhuman [Am]gifts
Some [G]superhero[F]
Some [G]fairytale [Am]bliss
Just [G]something I can [F]turn to
Somebo[G]dy I can [Am]kiss
[Chorus]
I want some[G]thing just like [F]this
Doo-doo-doo, [G]doo-doo-doo[Am], Doo-doo-doo

I’ve been rea[G]ding books of [F]old
The leg[G]ends, and the [Am]myths
The tes[G]taments they [F]told
The moon, [G]and it’s [Am]eclipse
And [G]Superman [F]unrolls
A suit [G]before he [Am]lifts
[G]But I’m [F]not the kind of [G]person
that it [Am]fits
[Pre-Chorus]
But she said, where’[G]d you wanna [F]go?
How much [G]you wanna [Am]risk?
I’m not [G]looking for [F]somebody
With some [G]superhuman [Am]gifts
Some [G]superhero[F]
