Pick me up off

How to play ALL FALLS DOWN: key, chords and progression

ALL FALLS DOWN by WILLIAM BLACK ft SAID THE SKY is written in C minor (three flats: B♭, E♭, A♭) and moves through 4 chords: G#, D#, A# and Cm.

The backbone of the song is G# – D# – A# – Cm (VI – III – VII – i in C minor). Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 1st fret and play the shapes G, D, A, Bm (75% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 0% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
