Analysis
The key pair is G major and its relative E minor (1 sharp). 7 different chords appear 82 times in total; 7 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
- Cmaj7 D GIVmaj7 → VIV → V EmVImaj7 → VIIVI → VII ×12
- D Gmaj7 GV → Imaj7authentic cadence EmVII → IIImaj7 ×4
- Am7 D Gii7 → Vii → V Emiv7 → VII ×4
- Bm7 Em7 Giii7 → vi7 Emv7 → i7natural-minor cadence ×4
The move to watch is Cmaj7 → D, heard 12 times. From the G side it reads IVmaj7 → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home); from the Em side it is VImaj7 → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic). 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 Bm7, land on B, D, F# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over D, land on D, F#, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Am7, land on A, C, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
Starting on Bm7, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The chords that keep coming back are Bm7, D, Am7, Cmaj7; read them as iii7–V–ii7–IVmaj7 in G or v7–VII–iv7–VImaj7 in Em. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Cmaj7 → D (IVmaj7 → V in G, VImaj7 → VII in Em): IV → V — the lift that builds tension before home. It closes on Bm7, letting the G side have the last word.
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.
