How to Play Happier Than Ever by Billie Eilish on Guitar

Happier Than Ever is a two-part masterpiece — a gentle, intimate first half and an explosive second half. The chord progression builds from a calm C/E7/Am/F loop to a roaring climax that requires big open strumming.

E7 in the key of Am is a secondary dominant chord — it creates a strong pull toward Am, adding drama to each resolution. The B7 chord in the verse adds further chromatic tension.

Tips for Playing Happier Than Ever

  • E7 to Am creates the strongest possible resolution in Am — the tension/release of the song.
  • The second half should be strummed hard and fast — contrast with the gentle fingerpicked first half.
  • B7 (X21202) is a chromatic passing chord; practise it slowly before playing at tempo.
