How to play Weakness Huey Lewis: key, chords and progression

Weakness Huey Lewis by Lennon Stella is centred on B♭ major (two flats: B♭, E♭). The song uses 11 chords: G#m, C#m, B, D#, G#, C#maj7, Cm, Am, Dm, G and C.

Most of the song cycles through Am – G – C – Am (vii – VI – II – vii in B♭ major). In solfa, that is te – lah – reh – te. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Good to know: G#m, C#m, B, D# and G# are the tricky part on guitar (barre or movable shapes). Slow the change down until it is clean; on piano and ukulele they are simpler.
