C, G, A, F: THE MOST OVERUSED PROGRESSION EVER
The most overused progression
It's getting out of hand
It's getting to be a strange obsession
With any pop punk band
Spoken: Hey guys I got this great new song!
This is how the progression is gonna go!
Dude that sounds exactly like our last song
LET'S USE IT!!!
Chorus: Hey kids! Wanna make a hit?
This progression here is the perfect fit!
You can set the chords in any key
And then you have a megahit-to-be!
Start on any note
Go down 5 frets
Go back up 2
Then go down 4
Repeat repeat repeat repeat
Till you can't play the chords no more
Look at Blink and New Found Glory
The same 4 chords in every song
The same progression, it's just so boring
Half their songs are 4 chords long
Spoken: Wait man, we're using the same notes that we did in the last song
Alright, what do we do now?
Let's make a key change!
TAKE IT UP A HALF STEP!!!
Many bands have one thing in common:
Lack of creativity
Instead of beating the dead horse,
Make a new 4-chord melody!
