Characteristic notes

- b7 = D (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the E minor side because it opens on Em and Em is heard 9 times while G never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from G major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Analysis
The key pair is G major and its relative E minor (1 sharp). 5 different chords appear 42 times in total; 5 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Everything stays inside one scale, which is why the song is easy to follow by ear.
Chord movement
- Bm Em Giii → vi Emv → inatural-minor cadence ×6
- C Em GIV → vi EmVI → iVI → i ×2
- C D GIV → VIV → V EmVI → VIIVI → VII ×1
The move to watch is Bm → Em, heard 6 times. From the Em side it is v → i (natural-minor cadence: gentle, modal arrival); from the G side it reads iii → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- G major pentatonic and E minor pentatonic are the same five notes (G – A – B – D – E): start from G for a brighter phrase, from E for a bluesier one.
- Over Bm, land on B, D, F# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Em, land on E, G, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over C, land on C, E, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
Starting on Em, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The chords that keep coming back are Bm, Em, C, Am; read them as iii–vi–IV–ii in G or v–i–VI–iv in Em. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Bm → Em (iii → vi in G, v → i in Em): natural-minor cadence — gentle, modal arrival. Ending on Bm, the song seals G as home.
This analysis is generated from the song's chords by akorculuk's harmony engine using consistent rules. When you change key, the degrees stay the same; only the chord names change.
