Em7
It's when you're
close enough to
 A
touch
I've forgotten
     Dmaj7
the point
My train of
thought
      Dmaj7
 destroyed
Em7
It's when you're
                A
loud enough to cut
In and through all
     Dmaj7
the noise
My train of
thought
     C#m7 F#
destroyed

[Chorus]
Em7
And once you get
        A
in my ear
I see kismet
        Dmaj7
sinking in
It's second
 Dmaj7
nature
Em7
Like the sap
 from
      A
a cedar
Rolling down
to be
      nature
Dmaj7
near her
             Dmaj7
It's second

before
My train of
thought

How to play Second NatureChords: key, chords and progression

Second NatureChords by Clairo is in the key of D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). The song uses 12 chords: Em7, A, Dmaj7, C#m7, F#, B, D#, Emaj7, D#m, G6, Gmaj7 and A7.

Listen for Em7 – A – Dmaj7 – Em7 (ii7 – V – Imaj7 – ii7 in D major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is reh – soh – doh – reh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 2nd fret and play the shapes Dm7, G, Cmaj7, Bm7, E, A, C#, Dmaj7, C#m, F6 (67% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 42% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
