Sad by Maroon 5 is a melancholic, emotive song that draws on the emotional vocal delivery of singer Adam Levine. Led by a bright, optimistic acoustic guitar riff in G major, the track moves through a range of moods, from haunting sorrow in the verse and pre-chorus to empowering, anthemic choruses. The verse and chorus move through a dramatic shift to E minor, as Levine's powerful singing calls for courage and strength in the face of heartache. As the song moves to its close, the lyrics reflect on the inevitable passage of time and its effect on relationships, with Levine's emotionally charged performance taking center stage.Sad – Maroon 5 (Piano-Vocal-Guitar)
