Songs that use it
- Let It Be, The Beatles
- Don’t Stop Believin’, Journey
- Someone Like You, Adele
- With or Without You, U2
- Someone You Loved, Lewis Capaldi
Songs often play it in another key, or start on another chord of the loop.
Make it your own
- Turn on the 7th button for a softer, jazzier feel.
- Pick ½ time so each chord lasts two bars. Great for ballads.
- Start on the vi chord instead (Am in C) and it becomes the sad pop progression.

What do the numbers mean?
Musicians number the chords of a key with Roman numerals. Capitals (I, IV, V) are major chords, which sound bright. Small letters (ii, iii, vi) are minor chords, which sound darker. DrHits prints these numbers at the bottom of every chord pad.
