Like Yesterday by Paul Cherry is played in the key of F#. Originally recorded in the sounding key of F#, 'Like Yesterday' by Paul Cherry is best approached with a Capo placed on Fret 4, enabling guitarists to execute friendly D shapes while fully preserving the studio pitch. Replace full barre B major with an ergonomic open B7 (x21202) voicing, offering significantly lighter fretting resistance for developing fingers during long practice sessions. The primary progression challenge lies in switching between G#m7 and C#7: keep your fingers hovering close to the fretboard rather than flying off between changes. Set your metronome at an initial practice tempo of 66 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 92 BPM.
