This is the chord progression of Iron Steel by Quinn XCII on Piano, Guitar, Ukulele and Keyboard.

[Verse 1]
F C
When we ended things, I loved it
Dm A#
Celebrated for weeks in a row
F C
Thought my life was on the right path
Dm A#
But now it hurts that I’m alone
F C
When we ended things, I felt it
Dm A#
Fell asleep at the wheel through the snow
F C
And despite all the things I wanted
Dm A#
It still hurts that I’m alone

[Verse 2]
F C
When I ended things, it felt good
Dm A#
Threw my feelings out windows that day
F C
It’s ironic that now I’m stuck here
Dm A#
Wiping my tears off photos of your face
F C
When we said goodbye, you hated me
Dm A#
I bet your opinion’s still the same
F C
It’s ironic that now I’m standing here
Dm A#
Writing lyrics that rhyme with your name, yeah

[Bridge]
A# C
I’ll make this right
Dm C
Stitching our injuries all through the night
A# C
Don’t wanna fight
Dm C
Although I’ve hurt you a million times

[Chorus]
F C Dm
Iron and steel, we were all of that
A#
All of that, all of that, oh yo
F C Dm
Now there’s no reason you call me back
A#
Call me back, call me back, no no
F C Dm
If you and I are still alive, let’s make it right
A#
Need you by my side somewhere
F C Dm
I feel now there’s no reason you would call me back
A#
Call me back, call me back, no no
F C Dm
If you and I are still alive, let’s make it right
A#
Need you by my side somewhere
F C Dm
I feel now there’s no reason you would call me back
A#
Call me back, call me back, no no

[Outro]

No no
Dm A#
Call me back
F C Dm A#
Call me back, call me back, call me back, no no.

How to play Iron Steel: key, chords and progression

Iron Steel by Quinn XCII is in the key of F major (one flat: B♭). The song uses 4 chords: F, C, Dm and A#.

The progression the song keeps returning to is F – C – Dm – A# (I – V – vi – IV in F major), the “four-chord” progression behind countless pop, rock and worship songs. In solfa, that is doh – soh – lah – fah. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 3rd fret and play the shapes D, A, Bm, G (75% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 50% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
