Mystery of Love

Mystery of Love is the principle song from Call me By Your Name, an academy award nominated film by Luca Guadagnino.

In addition to Mystery of Love, indie-folk songwriter, Sufjan Stevens, has two more songs on the soundtrack: Futile Devices and (my favorite) Visions of Gideon. The rest of the soundtrack is punctuated by avant-garde classical pieces including two from composer, Ryuichi Sakamoto (The Revenant). The whole thing is diverse and immensely listenable.

How to play Mystery of Love | fingerstyle guitar

The guitar tab for Mystery of Love is beautifully written across two pages. I would qualify this arrangement as difficult to play, and best for intermediate to advanced guitar players. The chord shapes are relatively easy, but the finger-style is fast and relentless. Enjoy, the guitar tab is available below:

My order of play looks like this, in accordance with the guitar tab:

Intro 1, Intro 2, Verse 4x, Pre Chorus 2x, Chorus 2x

Intro 2, Verse 4x, Pre Chorus 2x, Chorus 4x

Intro 1, Intro 2.
