About Ghost


At 104 BPM in G minor, "Ghost" sits in that mid-tempo pocket where groove and restraint matter more than speed. The song leans heavily on its rhythmic chordal feel, so keeping your strumming locked in and even is the real challenge rather than any single flashy technique. In E Standard tuning the chord shapes are comfortable, but nailing the dynamic push and pull between the verses and the chorus takes real control of your picking hand. Ella Henderson's vocal intensity drives the arrangement, and matching that energy on guitar means knowing when to sit back and when to push into the strums. The Pop Rock feel of the track rewards a clean attack with a bit of edge, so even small changes in how hard you dig in will shape the tone. Use the Practice Toolbar to loop the chorus transition slowed down until the dynamic shift feels natural under your hand.

  • The song sits in G minor at 104 BPM in E Standard tuning, making it accessible for intermediate players focused on building dynamic control.
  • The main challenge is controlling strumming intensity across verse and chorus sections, rather than any complex chord shapes or lead work.
  • Using the Practice Toolbar to slow down the chorus entry is a practical way to lock in the rhythmic accent before playing it up to tempo.
