3. Africa, One of Us, If I Were a Boy, and Other 6-4-1-5 Songs.

LESSON PREVIEW

In this tutorial we explore a different chord progression -- one related to 1564, but with a darker feel. If you're a songwriter, this chord sequence is perfect for those soulful or more sensitive songs you want to create.

The songs we'll be looking at are Africa, One of Us, If I Were a Boy, Building a Mystery, Foolish Games, and Never Gonna Leave This Bed.

But that's really just the tip of the iceberg. In the "6-4-1-5 Song List," accessed from this page, I show you how to find many more songs that use the same progression.

As in previous tutorials, to help you get the most out of this lesson, l match up each song with the specific style or styles best suited to it.
