How to play Waiting On The Weekend: key, chords and progression

To play Waiting On The Weekend by Yungblud, think in D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). It takes 8 chords: Bm, F#m, Em, A, D, G, Dsus and Gm7.

Listen for D – G – D – Dsus (I – IV – I – Isus4 in D major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – fah – doh – doh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: on guitar, Bm, F#m and Gm7 need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
