How to play This Christmas: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for This Christmas by Jess Glynne on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

This Christmas by Jess Glynne is centred on D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). The song uses 14 chords: D, Dmaj7, Bm7, Cadd9, A7sus4, F#m7, B7, Em7, F#7, Gmaj7, Gm6 and F#m and 2 more.

The backbone of the song is Dmaj7 – Bm7 – Cadd9 – Bm7 (Imaj7 – vi7 – ♭VIIadd9 – vi7 in D major). Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Good to know: Bm7, F#m7, F#7, Gm6 and F#m are played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into them slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
