How to play Will You Go Lassie Go: key, chords and progression

These are Will You Go Lassie Go chords by Celtic Thunder on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

Will You Go Lassie Go by Celtic Thunder is built around E♭ major (three flats: B♭, E♭, A♭), with 22 chords in all: F, Dm, Bb, Csus4, C, C/Bb, Gm, F/A, Am7, Am, D and G and 10 more.

Most of the song cycles through Bb – C – Dm – Gm (V – VI – vii – iii in E♭ major). In solfa, that is soh – lah – te – mi. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Good to know: on guitar, F, Bb, Csus4, Gm and F/A need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
