How to play No Good At All: key, chords and progression
These are the chords for No Good At All by Badfinger on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard
No Good At All by Badfinger is centred on E major (four sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯). The song uses 3 chords: E5, A5 and B5.
Most of the song cycles through E5 – A5 – E5 – B5 (I – IV – I – V in E major). In solfa, that is doh – fah – doh – soh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.
