How to play Halleys Comet: key, chords and progression
Halleys Comet by Billie Eilish is built around B major (five sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯, A♯), with 10 chords in all: B, D#7, G#m, E, F#, C#, Em, Bm, A and F#m.
Most of the song cycles through E – B – F# – E (IV – I – V – IV in B major). In solfa, that is fah – doh – soh – fah. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.
Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 2nd fret and play the shapes A, C#7, F#m, D, E, B, Dm, Am, G, Em (70% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 30% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
