View chords used in this chart
These are the chords to 'Gold' by Neon Hitch featuring Tyga.
I really, really like this song! It's so upbeat and awesome!
The chords are also relatively easy so that's nice as well :)
An explanation for the chords:
During the Chorus, if you play the chords on a piano it starts on an A major
chord in root position. The bottom note then goes down chromatically i.e. to a G#
thus making the chord a C#m in 2nd inversion, then when it's time for the next
chord the bottom notes goes down chromatically again to a G, making the chord an A7 in
3rd inversion.
Since the C#m chord in the song is quite weak (because it's in 2nd inversion rather than root position),
I prefer not to play the regular C#m on a guitar (which is too strong!)
but rather this weaker sounding one instead: xx2120
For the rest of the chords, just play the normal ones :D
Thank you and enjoy playing this wonderful song!
