Well, today as I was scrolling through Twitter, I ~happened upon~ a tweet that made my music nerd self HYPE 👏 THE 👏 F*CK 👏 UP. 👏
I was looking up Ariana Grande guitar chords (I don’t have a guitar) and discovered the chords to “Pete Davidson” are just BAE over and over and I can’t believe I just wrote the Da Vinci Code
Basically, this Twitter user saw that the song's chord progression spelled out "BAE" over and over again. 👀👀👀
Yup, like "bae" as in "before anyone else," "baby," "babe," and "poop" in Danish.
Safe to say, I was in music theory awe. Did Ari really just do THAT?!

Obviously, I decided it was time to put my music education to good use — I pulled up a virtual piano and CHECKED THOSE FACTS!!!!!!!
And sure enough, when I played the chords B, A, and E along with the track, it worked!!!!!!!

(This means that different versions of the chord progression are either raised or lowered from the original key that Ariana sings it in.)
So, Ariana — did you make the "Pete Davidson" chord progresh B, A, E on PURPOSE?! And if so, what other secret musical messages must we decode?!?!?!?!
