How to play The Most Beautiful Thing: key, chords and progression

The Most Beautiful Thing by Bruno Major keeps coming home to B minor (two sharps: F♯, C♯). You need 16 chords: G, Em7, Bm7, G/C, F#, A7sus, A7, Am7, Cm6, Cm/G, Dsus and Cmaj and 4 more.

The backbone of the song is G – Em7 – Bm7 – G (VI – iv7 – i7 – VI in B minor). Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Good to know: Bm7, F#, Cm6, Cm/G and Cm7 are the tricky part on guitar (barre or movable shapes). Slow the change down until it is clean; on piano and ukulele they are simpler.
