Emaj7


[Verse 1]
Thought
 Amaj7sus2
I'd be a different
person, but it's
just a different
life
     Emaj7
If I got married
tomorrow,
 I'd feel like
a teenage wife
    Amaj7sus2
I am older at the
 parties,
 thought that
wouldn't bother me
      Emaj7
I can tell who's
turning
 thirty versus
being
twenty-three, oh

[Verse 2]
   Amaj7sus2
The girls I knew
 at
 sixteen
have a friend
group of their
own
Thought I'd
Emaj7
make new
 friends
in college but
majority
moved home
        Amaj7sus2
My best friend's
in New
 York City,
she is
beauty,
 she is grace
      Emaj7
And I wonder if
 we'll ever live
 again in the
 same
place, oh


[Refrain]
Amaj7sus2
Ba-da-da,
ba-da,
 ba-da-da
  Emaj7
Ba-da, da



[Chorus]
        C#m
Was it better?
I was
  Bsus2
 younger,
 different
 Asus2
problems,
           E
different names
        C#m
Was it perfect?
Was it
 Bsus2
simple? Was it
Asus2
more or less the
 E
same?
How did it
 C#m    Bsus2 Asus2
change?
How did I
  E
change?
How did it
 C#m
change?
Bsus2
Asus2
How did I
  E
change?
How did I-


[Refrain]

[Verse 3]
  Amaj7sus2
I insisted that
 the faces
of my parents
 couldn't change
      Emaj7
But I love how
 I
look like my
mama
when she was
 my age
Thought
  Amaj7sus2
the world only
got bigger, I'd
be hanging
at the
park
Emaj7
Throwing balls
 at
cement walls
'til the
sky got dark,
 oh


[Refrain]
Amaj7sus2
Ba-da-da,
 ba-da,
ba-da-da
  Emaj7
Ba-da, da



[Bridge]
    Amaj7sus2
Crying at the
supermarket,
crying
at the DMV
      Emaj7
Crying at the
doctors office,
  Amaj7sus2
crying independently
       Amaj7sus2
Growing pains are
only growing,
it's a new reality
     Emaj7
Everything feels
 more
nostalgic in a
partial memory,
 oh


[Refrain]
Amaj7sus2
Ba-da-da,
 ba-da,
 ba-da-da
  Emaj7
Ba-da, da



[Chorus]
        C#m
Was it better?
I was
 Bsus2
younger,
 different
 Asus2
problems,
  Amaj7sus2
different names
        C#m
Was it perfect?
Was it
  Bsus2
 simple? Was it
Asus2
more or less the
 E
same?
How did it
 C#m    Bsus2 Asus2
change?
            E
How did I change?
            C#m
How did it change?
Bsus2
Asus2
            E
How did I change?
             F#
How did it change?

How to play Clueless: key, chords and progression

Clueless by Beach Bunny is built around E major (four sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯), with 7 chords in all: Amaj7sus2, Emaj7, C#m, Bsus2, Asus2, E and F#.

The progression the song keeps returning to is C#m – Bsus2 – Asus2 – E (vi – Vsus2 – IVsus2 – I in E major). In solfa, that is lah – soh – fah – doh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 2nd fret and play the shapes Gmaj7, Dmaj7, Bm, Asus2, Gsus2, D, E (71% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 43% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
