To learn Backstreet Boys - I Want It That Way chords with lyrics, your practice should emphasize these chord progressions: A, F#m, D, Abm, E, F#, D, E. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 49 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 99. Considering the song's key of A, position your capo to suit your vocal and chord preferences.
