How to play Your New Boyfriend: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Your New Boyfriend by Wilbur Soot on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Your New Boyfriend by Wilbur Soot is built around G major (one sharp: F♯), with 6 chords in all: G, B, Em, C, Cm and Am.

Listen for G – B – Em – C (I – III – vi – IV in G major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – mi – lah – fah. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: on guitar, B and Cm need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
