Walking In Your Footsteps chords by Shout Out Louds

Chords with lyrics

This song is so cute and powerful! What makes it so good in its simplicity
is the whole of the work; the drums, the bass, the synths, the recorder / flute riff...

However, to play it in the guitar, focus on the piano and this becomes a
very, very easy tune. It basically repeats a particular pattern through
and through.

The pattern is:

C majorC  C majorC D MajorD  D MajorD B minorBm  B minorBm C majorC

Strum once every chord, letting it ring and respecting the silence between
each sequence. The transitions (C-D, D-Bm, Bm-C) should be quick...
Just like the sound.

I'll mark the spots in the lyrics where they should go, but bear in mind
it's far easier to "grasp" the pattern. The lyrics are sung with different
speeds so the distance between each chord in different phrases might
confuse you. So basically, I recommend you get your rhythm in sync with
the piano from the song and you will not need to read these chords ever again.

There are some interlude parts that do not respect the pattern, but the
chords never change.

Without further ado,

"Walking In Your Footsteps"
