That Don’t Impress Me Much Chords: Learn the progressions


That Don’t Impress Me Much is a serious lesson in modal interchange and hit songwriting, The chords have so much to teach us, and so does that intro melody!

The key to writing hit melodies, be they vocal or guitar lines, is to hit the strong intervals. When it comes to the intro melody, this is done to perfection.

To learn that intro melody, you must have TAB so let’s talk about the chords instead. The verse is super simple with its VI – IV – I – V in the key of Am on repeat, like this:

||: Am (VI) F (IV) | C (I) G (V) :||

The bridge is also simple, although it’s not in the same key, it’s in the key of D, and the Roman Numerals are I – V – IV, like this:

||: D (I) A (V) | G (IV) :||

The chorus is in the relative major of the verse, so the key of C:

||: F (IV) C (I) | G (V) :||

I’ve designed some TAB pointing this out in detail as well as a breakdown of all modal interchange tricks that made That Don’t Impress Me Much a hit.
