Often played as a slow air or sung, "Sally Gardens" is commonly in G Major or D Major. The chord progressions are typically simple and lyrical, following the vocal melody, often using basic I-IV-V chords (G-C-D in G, or D-G-A in D) with occasional relative minors (like Em in G, or Bm in D) to add poignancy. The key is a gentle, flowing accompaniment that supports the beautiful, melancholic melody without overpowering it. Open the arrangement to leave a comment! 👇
