  D
You've been living with your doubts

Leaving me in the dark

And I've been tying ribbons for you

These are the chords for Red Flags by Chelsea Cutler on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Red Flags by Chelsea Cutler sits in B minor (two sharps: F♯, C♯), and you need 5 chords to play it: A, Bm, G, D and A/C#.

Listen for Bm – G – D – A/C# (i – VI – III – VII in B minor), the epic minor progression (i–VI–III–VII) used in many anthems: the song comes back to it again and again. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.
