How to play The Lord Reigns: key, chords and progression

This is the chords of The Lord Reigns by Bob Fitts on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.

The Lord Reigns by Bob Fitts sits in D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯), and you need 7 chords to play it: D, A, G, G/F#, Em7, G/A and Em/D.

Listen for A – Em/D – D – A (V – ii – I – V in D major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is soh – reh – doh – soh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Beginner-friendly: on guitar every chord is an open shape, which makes this a good song to learn early on.
