How to play You And I: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for You And I by Bryan Adams on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

You And I by Bryan Adams is centred on C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 13 chords: C, G/B, Am, F, G, G#, D#, Fm, Cm, A#, Cadd9 and D and 1 more.

Most of the song cycles through C – Am – F – C (I – vi – IV – I in C major). In solfa, that is doh – lah – fah – doh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Good to know: F, G#, D#, Fm and Cm are played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into them slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
