How to play Necromancer: key, chords and progression
Necromancer by Judas Priest sits in G major (one sharp: F♯), and you need 5 chords to play it: D, A, C, F and G.
Most of the song cycles through D – A – F – C (V – II – ♭VII – IV in G major). Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.
Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes A, E, G, C, D (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 80% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
