How to play Greyhound: key, chords and progression
To play Greyhound by Kississippi, think in G major (one sharp: F♯). It takes 4 chords: G, C, D/F# and Em.
The progression the song keeps returning to is C – G – D/F# – Em (IV – I – V – vi in G major), a rotation of the four-chord pop progression that starts on the IV chord. In solfa, that is fah – doh – soh – lah. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.
Beginner-friendly: on guitar every chord is an open shape, which makes this a good song to learn early on.
