How to play Premonitions: key, chords and progression

Premonitions by Miya Folick is built around D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯), with 11 chords in all: A, G, Asus4, Em7, B7, C, G6, D, F#m, Bm and Em.

Listen for A – Asus4 – Em7 – A (V – Vsus4 – ii7 – V in D major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is soh – soh – reh – soh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: on guitar, G6, F#m and Bm need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
