How to play For What Its Worth: key, chords and progression

For What Its Worth by Liam Gallagher is in the key of A minor (no sharps or flats). The song uses 12 chords: Am, G, F, C, C/B, Dm, G7, Em, D, D/F#, Csus4 and Csus2.

The backbone of the song is C – C/B – Am – G (III – III – i – VII in A minor). Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Good to know: F, Csus4 and Csus2 are played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into them slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
