How to play For A Moment: key, chords and progression

These are For A Moment chords by Calah Lane & Timothée Chalamet in Wonka on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

For A Moment by Wonka is built around G major (one sharp: F♯), with 14 chords in all: G, C, D, Bm, B7, Cm, Em, B, E, A, G#7 and Am and 2 more.

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

Good to know: on guitar, Bm, Cm, B, G#7 and G#m need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
