[Verse 1]
E                          A
I don’t wanna seem the way I do
F#m                 A                 E
But I’m confident when I’m with you
E                                 A
Lately, all I feel is bad and bruised
F#m                 A                 E
Tired of tripping on my shoes

[Chorus]
A                                 E
But when he loves me, I feel like I’m floating
B                                 A                                 E
When he calls me pretty, I feel like somebody
B                 F#m                 A                 E
Even when we fade eventually to nothing
B                                 F#m                                 A
You will always be my favourite form of loving

[Verse 2]
E                                 A
When I start to tumble from the sky
F#                                     A
You remind me how to fly
E                                 A
Lately I’ve been feeling not alive
F#m                 A                 E
But you bring me back to life

Even when we fade eventually to nothing

You will always be my favourite form of loving

How to play Cloud 9: key, chords and progression

Cloud 9 by Beach Bunny is written in E major (four sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯) and moves through 5 chords: E, A, F#m, B and F#.

Listen for F#m – A – E – A (ii – IV – I – IV in E major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is reh – fah – doh – fah. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 2nd fret and play the shapes D, G, Em, A, E (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 40% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
