Wait by Caleb Gordon is played in the key of F#. Arranged in the natural sounding key of F# in standard guitar tuning without a capo, 'Wait' by Caleb Gordon utilizes direct fretboard shapes to project full open-string acoustic warmth and resonance throughout every section. The tricky Bm barre can be effortlessly simplified using an open Bm7 (x20202) shape, removing the need for five-string index finger pressure across the second fret while maintaining clean note clarity. The primary progression challenge lies in switching between BBm and Abm: keep your fingers hovering close to the fretboard rather than flying off between changes. Set your metronome at an initial practice tempo of 79 BPM in 4/4 time to master the '↓ - ↓ ↑ - ↑ ↓ ↑' strumming groove, emphasizing steady downstrokes on beats one and three before accelerating toward the studio speed of 110 BPM.
