Analysis
The key pair is E major and its relative C# minor (4 sharps). 2 different chords appear 28 times in total; 2 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
There's no textbook cadence here; the chords circle around each other in a loop, so the song feels more like a groove than a series of arrivals.
Improvisation tips
- E major pentatonic and C# minor pentatonic are the same five notes (E – F# – G# – B – C#): start from E for a brighter phrase, from C# for a bluesier one.
- Over F#m7, land on F#, A, C# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over G#m7, land on G#, B, D# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The opening F#m7 lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The backbone is F#m7, G#m7 — ii7–iii7 from the E side, iv7–v7 from the C#m side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. The final chord is G#m7; the ear comes to rest in E.
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.
