Tip on songs of a certain chord progression?

murillo

Hello

I would like to learn songs that have a similar chord progression to “all of me” and “who’s sorry now”. Does anybody here know what songs I should listen to? It’s too much work to just transcribe songs and find out that the chord progression isn’t the one I’m looking for.

Best regards

Murillo

Murillo, it seems to me that you may be asking about songs that feature a I to III7 (eg, C to E7) progression?

Right off the top of my head, I can think of "Sunny Side of the Street" and "Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter" and "Five Foot Two" ...or old pop hits like "Abilene" and "Hello Mary Lou, Goodbye Heart"...

I think "Nobody Knows You When You're Down & Out" has that same I-III motif

And you can check out the chord changes for yourself for hundreds more 20th century jazz standards at this website:

(I take it that for some reason you find this chord change particularly appealing?)

Thanks again.

I do like it but the main reason is that I have a little bit of problem improvising over this particularly chord progression and would like to listen how other people play over it.

Best regards
