Fame Is by Crowded House is played in the key of B. Arranged in the natural sounding key of B in standard guitar tuning without a capo, 'Fame Is' by Crowded House utilizes direct fretboard shapes to project full open-string acoustic warmth and resonance throughout every section. Replace full barre B major with an ergonomic open B7 (x21202) voicing, offering significantly lighter fretting resistance for developing fingers during long practice sessions. The primary progression challenge lies in switching between B and F#: keep your fingers hovering close to the fretboard rather than flying off between changes. Set your metronome at an initial practice tempo of 79 BPM in 4/4 time to master the '↓ - ↓ ↑ - ↑ ↓ ↑' strumming groove, emphasizing steady downstrokes on beats one and three before accelerating toward the studio speed of 110 BPM.
