Does Wonderful use a well-known chord progression?
Yes! In G major: The doo-wop progression (IV → V → I → vi) shows up in the chorus at 1:16 and the pre-chorus at 2:02. That old-school slow-dance sound, with a gentle detour through minor before heading home. The three-chord I–IV–V progression (IV → V → I) shows up in the verse at 0:30 and 0:40. Three chords, plenty of mileage: home, a lift away, and the pull to come back.
