A Few More Common Progressions in E to Try.

And that brings me to my point, whether you stay strictly within the key or borrow a chord here or there from outside it, as long as it sounds good, do what your creativity leads you to do.īut without further ado, let’s get into the nitty gritty of the key of E and the more common chord progressions. Having said that, as long as you stay mostly within the key, and I say mostly, because a chord outside of the key in a place where you want tension can sound really good. It just keeps things more interesting and adds variation between the verses, pre-choruses, choruses and bridges. You’ll find that a lot of songs combine different progressions. If you’ve similarly found that you enjoy this key too and want to get into writing your own music, it’s helpful to know the common progressions to get you going. In any case, it’s nothing that regular practice won’t fix. If you’re a beginner, some of the chords may be a little harder, but there are plenty of ways to play chords that may be easier. I like the chords in it and it’s a comfortable key for me to sing in.
