How to play N Side: key, chords and progression

N Side by Steve Lacy is built around D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯), with 4 chords in all: D/E, Em7, F#m7 and Dma9.

The backbone of the song is D/E – Em7 – F#m7 – Dma9 (I – ii7 – iii7 – i in D major). In solfa, that is doh – reh – mi – doh. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Good to know: F#m7 is played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into it slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
