How to play Take A Take A Me: key, chords and progression
Take A Take A Me by The Muffs is built around D♭ major (five flats: B♭, E♭, A♭, D♭, G♭), with 3 chords in all: Db, Gb and Ab.
The progression the song keeps returning to is Db – Gb – Db (I – IV – I in D♭ major). In solfa, that is doh – fah – doh. Learn these 3 changes first and most of the song falls into place.
Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 4th fret and play the shapes A, D, E (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 0% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
