Recurring four-chord sequences in this transcription include F♯m → B → E → A (19 occurrences); E → A → F♯m → G♯m (19 occurrences); A → F♯m → G♯m → C♯m (19 occurrences). These are exact chord-label matches within sections, not a complete harmonic analysis.

Here are a few patterns to play with: i → iv → VII → III in C♯ minor; iv → VII → III → VI in C♯ minor; III → VI → iv → v in C♯ minor. Think of Roman numerals as chord names you can take into any key. Uppercase is major, lowercase is minor; in minor keys, we count from the natural-minor scale.
