@markiliff Thanks to you too, this piece really is quite amazing.

[AlanMRedman]

@livingittothefull Thank you for your help, I'll mess around with this a little later.

Alan, I think it's just 5th - 4th - root then back to 5th.

Isn't the point of the piece that all the fragments quoted follow the same progression (whether or not it's the one I think it is)?

µ

PS: Just seen livingittothefull's response: 5th-4th-root-5th of C.

Alan, I don't have a uke yet and I tend to play by ear but I've been messing about with this on my six string "g that should not be named" and I've got G, F, C,G as the four chords that will carry you through to when Will joins in. Hope this helps.

[AlanMRedman]

Does anyone know the Chord progression of this song or at least the four chords they keep repeating towards the beginning?
