Lost love, so strange

And heaven's not real, babe

Could lay down next to you

A           A7
Fixin' your hair on the way

to his place off Broadway

at night
A                   A7
If you're wakin' up slow

Together we'll talk   it

through the night

But it feels so fuckin' light

How to play Mia: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Mia by Snail Mail on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Mia by Snail Mail is centred on A major (three sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯). The song uses 16 chords: A, A7, Dmaj7, F#m, D, D#m, C#m, F#7, Bm7, E, E7 and Dm and 4 more.

The progression the song keeps returning to is Dmaj7 – A – A7 – D (IVmaj7 – I – I7 – IV in A major). In solfa, that is fah – doh – doh – fah. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Good to know: F#m, D#m, C#m, F#7 and Bm7 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.
