About This Song

O Re Piya by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan from the 2007 film Aaja Nachle is a deeply spiritual Sufi-Bollywood song that resonates with guitar players and singers alike. With Capo on the 2nd fret in B Minor, the open chord shapes in Am give the song its warm, acoustic quality. The main pattern Am/Em/F/G runs through the intro and most sections. The song builds through multiple repetitions of Am/G/F/G/Am and C/F/Em/F/G sequences before resolving with Am/Em/F/G in the outro. Focus on the strumming dynamics — softer in the verse, building in the chorus to capture Rahat Fateh Ali Khan's emotive delivery. A Sufi-inspired favourite at JBX Music guitar classes in Mumbai.
