One of the most beautiful songs from a wonderful movie Kaminey! It is a very easy song to play on the guitar with simple basic open chords.

The song is in the key of C major. So the chords used in the song are C, Dm, Em, F, G and Am.

The Agnee Band was roped in to create theme music for MTV Roadies and Splitsvilla, and they delivered on both occasions! The theme song of Splitsvilla is especially enthralling with beautiful percussions by Mohan, the lead singer.

Ab Na Jaa - Euphoria

Euphoria has come up with many hit numbers over the years through its various albums and some of the songs have gone on to top the chartbusters. This particular romantic song, Ab Na Jaa was a big hit but somehow I missed it completely, until a new net friend of mine, Neha brought my attention to the song.

Since then, I haven’t lost a moment in penning down the chords of the song. They are pretty simple but use barre chords so you need to know that to play this song.

Tune Jo Na Kaha Main Wo Sunta Raha - New York

Oh what a beautiful song it is !! The melancholic music of the song comes out subtly in the use of minor chords in the root notes. Mohit Chauhan has sung it very well.

Though the song can be related very easily to other such sad songs, it still succeeds in bringing a refreshing appeal to the listener.

The chords used in the song are simply F, C, A# and Dm. Though it can be played with open chords, I prefer to play it with barre chords.

Khuda Ke Liye, Runway

This song, Khuda Ke Liye from the movie Runway, has been buzzing in my ear from the moment I first heard it on television. Its a beautiful melody with soft guitar arpeggios in the background. Moreover, I love the lyrics of the song: simple yet profound.

I would suggest that before trying to play this song, listen to it with your headphones until the feel of it sinks in. The song uses intermediate-level chords so you need to have a good hands with the chords to be able to play this song. There is no fixed strumming, plucking the notes of each chord is a better way of playing the song than just hitting the chord.

Hai Junoon - New York

This is an excellent song with very simple basic music which any beginner guitarist can play. The song uses suspended versions of D chord just like in the song Summer of 69.

Nothing much to say about the guitar part. It’s pretty straight-forward. Again, this song was brought to my notice by a very special friend of mine who has been instrumental in keeping me informed about new songs which are based on guitar at the right time. Thanx dear!

Raaz The Mystery Continues, Soniyo

There are two versions of this song, but as you might have guessed, I like the slow one (From the Heart) as it gives more scope for guitar playing. Fortunately, this song uses basic chords, though I would suggest to use barre chords instead of open chords if you know how to play it.

I have also tabbed the interlude part in between the mukhda and first antra. I didn’t give it enough time and it is a simplified version of the original which uses more effect. If any pro guitarist can suggest an improved version, it is most welcome!

The most unique thing about this song is its strumming. It uses the muting effect with the left hand in an excellent fashion. This makes it imperative to use barre chords for the muting to be effective. Moreover, it is an excellent song to practice acoustic guitar though the chords are pretty advanced and require you to know barre chords.
