How to play "Horsepower" by Post Malone on guitar

[Intro]
Chords: F, Ab, Bb
- Start with the clean setting on your amp for a clear tone.
- The F, Ab, and Bb chords are played as major chords. Strum each chord clearly to emphasize the intro's pacing.

[Verse]
- Maintain the same chord pattern (F, Ab, Bb) throughout the verses.
- Focus on a steady rhythm, allowing each chord to ring out before transitioning smoothly to the next.
- Pay attention to dynamics; the intensity should build as the verse progresses, reflecting the lyrics' escalation.

[Chorus]
- Here, increase your strumming intensity to match the energetic shift in the lyrics.
- Use a stronger, more pronounced strumming pattern. Consider using more downstrokes to drive the rhythm.

[Bridge]
- The transition between the verse and chorus might involve a slight pause or a change in strumming pattern to differentiate the sections.

[Guitar Solo]
- If you're attempting the solo, practice the scales relevant to the chords used (F minor pentatonic could be a good start).
- Listen to the original track to get the timing and feel of the solo. Try incorporating techniques like bends and vibrato to 
enhance the solo's expression.

[General Tips]
- Consistent practice of the transitions between chords will aid in smooth performance.
- Use a metronome to keep your timing accurate, especially when practicing the solo.
- struming pattern you're going to go: down up up up up down up.

[Common Mistakes]
- Rushing through chord transitions without letting each chord resonate.
- Losing the rhythm during the solo by not keeping time with the backing chords.
