[Chorus]
C
You make me cry
when it
Fmaj7
comes to an end
             Am
And you were all that
  Am7
we hoped
      Fmaj7
But i can’t recommend
        Am
getting close
              Am7
I should have known
         Fmaj7      C
But i’ll see you again

How to play Normal Thing: key, chords and progression

Normal Thing by Gracie Abrams is centred on B♭ major (two flats: B♭, E♭). The song uses 8 chords: C, Fmaj7, Am, Am7, Eb, Bb, F and Bbsus2.

The progression the song keeps returning to is Eb – Bb – F – Eb (IV – I – V – IV in B♭ major). In solfa, that is fah – doh – soh – fah. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Good to know: Eb, Bb, F and Bbsus2 are played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into them slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
