About This Song

Attention by Charlie Puth (2017) is a sleek, minimalist pop song that is built on just four chords — Dm, C, Am, and A# — cycling throughout the entire track. The song is in D Minor and requires no capo. The A# chord (B-flat) can be played as a barre chord on fret 1 or, for beginners, as a simplified 3-string version: x13311. The verse chord loop is one of the most satisfying for beginners because it flows naturally and sounds immediately recognisable. At JBX Music in Mumbai, this is a popular request among students learning Western pop songs.
