How to play Stuck: key, chords and progression

Stuck by Liz Lieber is centred on G major (one sharp: F♯). The song uses 11 chords: Am, D, G, Am7, C, Em, A, Bm, F#m, C# and F#.

The progression the song keeps returning to is A – Bm – A – D (II – iii – II – V in G major). In solfa, that is reh – mi – reh – soh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

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