Harmony analysis

Manifest – Durma: key and chord analysis

The song opens on Em7 and ends on B7. Its chords belong to both G major and Em, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

G major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

7 = F# (leading tone, pulls home)
4 = C (the note that leans on the 3rd)

Minor view

E minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

b6 = C (the minor's melancholy)
b7 = D (natural-minor colour)
#7 = D# (harmonic-minor leading tone from the V chord)

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 the major V chord points straight at Em. 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.

Chord degrees: major and relative minor

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to G or to Em; comparing both readings is a practice of its own.

Every chord of the key, listed 1 to 7 separately for each key. Chords played in the song show how often they appear; chords from outside the scale sit next to their own degree.

Analysis

The key pair is G major and its relative E minor (1 sharp). 5 different chords appear 45 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Em brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from G, the same B7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Em.

Chord movement

D7 G GV7 → Iauthentic cadence EmVII7 → III ×9
Am7 D7 Gii7 → V7ii → V Emiv7 → VII7 ×9
B7 Em7 GV7/vi → vi7secondary resolution EmV7 → i7harmonic-minor cadence ×8

The move to watch is D7 → G, heard 9 times. From the Em side it is VII7 → III; from the G side it reads V7 → I (authentic cadence: the strongest arrival home). 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 Em7, land on E, G, B — 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.
Over D7, land on D, F#, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
When B7 comes, swap the scale's D for D#: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song's harmonic story

The opening Em7 lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are Em7, Am7, D7, G; read them as vi7–ii7–V7–I in G or i7–iv7–VII7–III in Em. B7 is the interesting twist: in G it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Em it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on D7 → G (V7 → I in G, VII7 → III in Em): authentic cadence — the strongest arrival home. It closes on B7, letting the G side have the last word.
