Marry You’s chords and progressions
The ultimate easy-to-learn wedding tune we have from Bruno Mars in Marry You. As there are only three chords, you won’t have to rehearse this one!
Using roman numerals, the chords for Marry You are I – II – IV – I. Could it be any easier?
Perhaps for a beginner, it’s tricky as these need to be played as barre chords. Well, the Gm could be an open-position chord, but still, F and Bb have to be barre.
Let’s look at how you can find a way around this using a capo.
- Fret 1: E – F#m – A – E, the F#m chord is barre
- Fret 3: D – Em – G – D, no barre chords!
- Fret 5: C – Dm – F – C, the F chord is barre
- Fret 7: A – Bm – D – A, the Bm chord is barre.
Looks to me like the best way is to play this using a capo on fret 3, thinking in the key of D, unless you know the CAGED system really well and don’t mind playing fractions of barre chords.
