Joker – Guitar Chords | Harrdy Sandhu
Joker by Harrdy Sandhu is one of the most heart-wrenching Punjabi sad songs out there, with music by B Praak and lyrics by Jaani. The original recording is in the key of F#, which means barre chords all the way — but with a capo on the 4th fret, you can play the exact same song using simple open chord shapes. In this post, you'll find Joker guitar chords (easy capo version), strumming pattern, and full lyrics with chords.

🎸 Guitar Chords
The original key uses F#, D#m, G#m, C#, and B — all barre chords. Placing a capo on the 4th fret lets you play the same song with these easy open shapes instead:
D – Bm – Em – A (with G used occasionally)
- D – xx0232
- Bm – x24432
- Em – 022000
- A – x02220
- G – 320003
🥁 Strumming Pattern
D DU UDU
Play it slow and let the chords ring out — this is a sad, emotional song, so there's no need to rush the strumming.
Difficulty
Beginner-friendly once you use the capo trick above. If you try to play it in the original key without a capo, you'll need barre chords (F#, D#m, G#m, C#), which pushes the difficulty up to intermediate.
