[Intro]
D D D D

[Verse]
D
Cozy up by the fire
Let all the air out
                       Gmaj7  D
I'm not afraid, I'm on wire
      A    Gmaj7    D
That I'm connected too
D
That man he swallowed a sword
That man's scared, or he's
                  Gmaj7   D
not scared of the stage
      A     Gmaj7    D
That he's connected too
 A     Gmaj7   D
I'm connected too

How to play A Little Sound: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for A Little Sound by The Lumineers on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

A Little Sound by The Lumineers is in the key of D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). The song uses 7 chords: D, Gmaj7, A, E, F#m, B#m and A#.

Most of the song cycles through D – A – Gmaj7 – D (I – V – IVmaj7 – I in D major). In solfa, that is doh – soh – fah – doh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Good to know: F#m, B#m and A# 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.
