About Halo

"Halo" is a pop ballad by Beyoncé, released as the fourth single from her 2008 album I Am... Sasha Fierce. Written by Ryan Tedder and Evan Bogart, the song was designed to reveal a more personal, stripped-back side of Beyoncé away from her stage persona. For electric guitarists, it offers a rewarding study in clean, emotive playing — its smooth chord progressions and melodic sensibility translate well to both fingerstyle and light-strumming arrangements.

  • "Halo" appears on the I Am... disc of the double album, intended as the more personal, intimate half of the project.
  • The song was co-written by Ryan Tedder, frontman of OneRepublic, who also co-produced it alongside Beyoncé.
  • "Halo" was inspired by Ray LaMontagne's 2004 song "Shelter", giving it a warm, acoustic-influenced emotional foundation.

How to Play Halo

Tuning: E Standard · Key: E major · Tempo: 120 BPM

Use the section loop to isolate a passage, drop the speed below 100%, and set the metronome to 120 BPM to build it up to tempo.
