Everything I Shouldn't Be Thinking About by Thompson Square is played in the key of Ab. Originally recorded in the sounding key of Ab, 'Everything I Shouldn't Be Thinking About' by Thompson Square is best approached with a Capo placed on Fret 3, enabling guitarists to execute friendly F shapes while fully preserving the studio pitch. The Eb barre chord can be voiced as a partial three-string triad on upper strings to preserve momentum and prevent fingertip strain while practicing. The primary progression challenge lies in switching between Eb and D: keep your fingers hovering close to the fretboard rather than flying off between changes. Set your metronome at an initial practice tempo of 66 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 92 BPM.
