All About That Bass

This transcription starts in A major.

The estimated tempo is 133 BPM, calculated from the median spacing between detected beats. This is a summary of the transcription; timing can vary during the song.

Recurring four-chord sequences in this transcription include A → Bm → E → A (5 occurrences); Bm → E → A → Bm (4 occurrences); E → A → Bm → E (4 occurrences). These are exact chord-label matches within sections, not a complete harmonic analysis.

Here are a few patterns to play with: I → ii → V → I in A major; ii → V → I → ii in A major; V → I → ii → V in A major. Think of Roman numerals as chord names you can take into any key. Uppercase is major, lowercase is minor; in minor keys, we count from the natural-minor scale.

Yes! In A major: The ii–V–I progression (ii → V → I) shows up in the chorus at 0:04 and the verse at 0:19. Jazz’s trusty route home: set up some tension, turn it up, then let it resolve.
