Hi,

This is the first time I have tried to do something like this... so I have doubts.
I am trying to figure out what key this is in



I am pretty sure its in Eminor (or maybe its relative major.. I'm not too confident )

could someone help me out please?

also if you could "help" me with the chord progression, that would be cool also


Many thanks!

-Chris

Yes this is E minor. I would help you with the whole song but I can do it after the weekend if somebody doesn't help you before.

Yes it's in E minor.

Here the chord progression I hear.


Intro

[Em][Bm/G][Cadd2][G/B]

[Am9][G/B][Cadd2][Dsus4][D]



Chorus

There is something that I see /But an unexpected way 

[Em][Bm7][C]

[Gadd2][Am7][Cadd2][G]



[Em][Bm7][C]

[Gadd2][Am7][Cadd2][G]



It's no more mystery ....
  [C][G][C][Em]

  [C][G][A][B]

   [C][Am7][G]

Then it goes into Fm (transpose to one semitone high.)

It's not exactly the same as above chords going in F minor.

But I think you can build upon those chords.

If I have time I will do it for you. 

If you are not familiar with Gadd2 play G instead and you can replace C add2 by C. 

It's bit difficult to write the chords over the lyrics in the forum post.I am a lazy guy.

That post was definitely not lazy, Vinod. You rock!

That was a mistake Muris 

It was very difficult to type chords in the forum.I just type one line and then copied and pasted several times for other lines and then edited when needed.

That's why I am called a lazy guy.

Sorry for that

ps.

Vinod, I will try to build on what you have provided to figure out the chords for when it goes to Fminor, but it is likely I may need more help.

oh and you are sooooo NOT lazy
