Was your question how to find the key or find the chords? :cheer:
Sorry buddy! Didn't I answer your question? You didn't say what chords you were playing the song in so I assumed you used the normal chords most people play the song with and then gave you the key.Bear!!! You just did the guitar equivalent of telling me how a film ends!! Aaaargh. But thanks anyway!
Was your question how to find the key or find the chords? :cheer:

I asked this question once (quite a while ago). For those of us who struggle with transcription, it is nice to get a little lead on the key of a song and then give a serious go at trying to get the chords from there. Kind of a little stepping stone to being able to figure the key out ourselves......
No harm, no foul though, cause I don't think carpet is going to run out of songs to check on.....lol I know I wont!!!!!!!!!

When working on transcription, I find it helpful to think of the songs in terms of scale degrees as well as just the chord names. For example, on this one I, IV, iii, V..... That way if you ever decide to transpose it is much easier to do so. Also, knowing your scales degrees will pay off in the long run on other issues as well....
Have fun! Transcribing can test you, but from personal experience, when you finally get a song done, it feels great!
