_ [Em] _ _ _ [N] Okay, let's have a closer look at the chord progression.
We're gonna break this into three separate parts
first of all
We're gonna have a closer look at that intro and the variations to the E chord in the D chord
They're subtle, but they're there
Then we'll have a closer look at the choruses and then we'll finish it off with the verses
Let's get to that intro the song basically starts on the E major chord
I'll play it through listen for these slight changes, and then we'll review it a little closer
We'll go into a bit more detail.
Here we go [E] starting on the E major chord _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ That takes you into actually what would be the chorus _ _
[N] So what did we just do let's have a closer look _
on the [E] E major chord _ _ _
They actually add in their pinky finger to the second fret of the second string _ _ _ _
_ Here it's slight, but it's there _
_ _ _ _ They do the same thing to the D [D] chord _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Which [A] is the pinky on the first string of the third fret
Essentially making it a Dsus4
_ _ _ [E] So let's let's go through it again and slow it down _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
That's it that takes you into the chorus
_ [N] Let's have a look
_ _ Okay, the chorus.
Let's have a closer look it basically starts on the D chord here we go _
Oh, it's [D] so nice to be with you
I love [A] all the things you say and do and it's [D] so nice to hear you say
You're gonna [A] please me in every way _
Cuz [E] honey, I got the notion [D] you're causing emotion [A] in my soul _ _ _
_ _ _ _ That's it _
Let's have a closer look now at the verses
[N] _
Okay the verse here we go
_ Basically starts on the A major chord _ _
_ [A] _ Baby you and me _
_ [C#m] _ Got something that's real.
I know it's gonna last [D] a lifetime _ _ _ _
