“Should I Stay or Should I Go” Chords

Here are the chords found in the song “Should I Stay or Should I Go” by The Clash. One of the chords you see below is an F chord that uses your thumb to play a note on the 6th string. This is a very common way to play and F chord in rock music. I often refer to this as the Rock F Chord.

I talk about why I use the F chord above in the video guitar lesson. But below are a couple of other options. You could use either a barre chord F or what I fondly call the “wimpy” F chord.
