All Right Now Chords: Learn the progressions


The chords for All Right Now are largely centred around the traditional blues concept of the I – IV and V, although there is more to it.

In the key of A, the A chord is most of the time an A5. When we move to the D chord (IV) we maintain that A in the bass.

As the chorus appears, we include a G chord, this is the classic rock n roll (chord bVIIx). The D now gets an F# in the bass.

The E chord, which is chord V, only appears once, at the end of the (very long) solo.

The solo is backed up by a very distinctive bass line. In fact, from beginning to end, All Right Now is packed with slash chords and interesting bass movements. 

And I supposed, once you know that Andy, the bass player wrote the song, it all makes sense as to why All Right Now’s chords are what they are.



All Right Now was written by Free’s bass player!

All Right Now is a single by English rockers Free. Released in 1970, it would become their biggest hit. As Paul Rodgers (lead singer) moved on and founded Bad Company, he would still perform All Right Now with his new band.

Written by the bass player of Free, Andy Fraser, in the wake of a bad gig, Paul Rodgers contributed with the lyrics.

All Right Now hit the charts the world over, claiming the top spot in over 20 territories. To this day it is still played on classic rock radio stations, by DJs and working bands, in many ways epitomizing the genre.
