I'll second the nomination. And if you want it to be three chords rather than four, you can skip the Em.

I cut my teeth on Folk music, so I will go with almost any Folk Song using
G, Em, C, D. And if I need a change, C, Am, F, G. If I feel like a challenge, I will go for, D, B7, G,A.

Great thread this! Self-imposed limitations or just trying to write something in a particular style. Brent - great songs you have!
About making your own productions - it is great being a multi-instrumentalist but having a keyboard - preferably a synth or at least Midi with a good DAW - is a good second-best. My Korg Kross-synth has a lot of interesting capabilities and together with Studio One Pro I have no excuses for not making music. |

Wow, I wasn't expecting this many responses thanks heaps guys.
One of my all time favourites is Wanted dead or alive, Bon Jovi. Apart from the awkward little intro which I just cannot for the life of me play properly on a 12 string it's guts of the song is just again basic chords G, F, D and Cadd9 |

There are so many but the one I thought of first is Just Like Heaven by The Cure. A major- E major- B minor- D major. Add a smidge of F# minor to G major in the chorus and it is a simple but wonderful sound.
Honorable mentions to Amie (Pure Prarie League) Southern Cross (C,S&N) and Cool Change (Little River Band). |
