How to play Reason To Believe: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Reason To Believe by Joyce Manor on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Reason To Believe by Joyce Manor is in the key of D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). The song uses 7 chords: D, G, A, Bm, Em7, F#m and Em.

The progression the song keeps returning to is D – A – Bm – A (I – V – vi – V in D major). In solfa, that is doh – soh – lah – soh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Good to know: Bm 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.
