Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough’s chords and progressions
Centered around the idea of moving between two major chords a tone apart, A – B, but maintaining the bass line of B, Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough’s chords could be described as B11 – B, or A/B – B, which is essentially the same thing.
The keyboards are making a few modifications to this, mainly through changing inversion. Above you can see I’ve put A/B sometimes, this just means, change inversion!
There’s also a Bsus2, this is to indicate that the funky guitar adds a 9. The A6/B is a nice little color note from a string line.
The completely crazy-looking chords following the stop are for the breakdown version.

On the guitar, it is very difficult to fit that many notes in, and playing over four strings sounds muddy, not to mention how hard it is to switch that quickly!
I recommend you find three strings to play the chords on, meaning you have to leave some of the low notes out.
Overall, most of these chords are for the keyboard player, the guitar is picking funky little lines, let’s take a look at four bars of this in TAB.
Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough Guitar TAB
Here’s a TAB idea you could use for most of the song, maybe vary this with not playing at all once in a while!

All these notes should be played short, apart from beat 4 of bar three. Writing the rhythm above as all 16th notes would make it extremely difficult to read.
If you look closely, you’ll see a little dot over most 8th notes.
This dot means: play staccato. This is a way to avoid writing 16th notes so it’s easier to read this funky little line that will work great when playing Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough on the guitar.
