Hey Dave. I pulled the suno song into my recorder. It now occupies track one and two, stereo.

It took me awhile to figure out the chords. I have gotten better at this, even from my participation on JPF….the Name That Tune thread…lol…got me started on it. Sigh. How far l’ve come.

Anyway, suno song is in the key of Bb. It’s that first chord. Bb. I figured out the next chord in the intro, Cm….but hit a wall after that.


So I put a capo on the first fret, turning the Bb to an A chord…..yes. The chords started to pop out…Bm, D, E, F#m.

From there, I got out my trusty ‘Wheel of Fifths’ chart…..and determined the intro is….

I, vi, V, I

And the verse is…

I, vi, IV, V, I

FUN!

Now I can take the capo off, and use the Bb chords that correspond….Bb, Cm, Gm, Bb for the intro, etc.


Or….pick a key that fits my vocal range.

Hmmm..what other problems? I don’t play violin or penny whistle…hmm…maybe slide, or harmonica, or even uku.
