Oasis · from (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, 1995
One of the most-played songs on guitar — four chords that repeat through the whole verse. Below are the exact shapes, sourced live from the chord library so the diagrams can never drift from the real fingerings.
Open Wonderwall on the interactive simple bass, hear every chord, and loop the progression.
Play Wonderwall in the Studio →Wonderwall is in F# minor. Guitarists usually play it with a capo on the 2nd fret using easier E-minor-shape chords, which is why guitar tabs look like they are in E minor — but the sounding key, and what piano and bass play, is F# minor.
The simplest bass line plays the root of each real sounding chord — F#, A, E, then B in the verse, and D, E, F#, A, E, B through the chorus. These are the true pitches, a whole step above the guitarist's capo shapes, because the bass (like the piano) has no capo to transpose for it.
