Recurring four-chord sequences in this transcription include Em7 → A7 → D → Bm7 (14 occurrences); Cm7 → Fm7 → B♭7 → E♭maj7 (3 occurrences); Em7 → A7 → D → D7 (2 occurrences). These are exact chord-label matches within sections, not a complete harmonic analysis.

Here are a few patterns to play with: ii7 → V7 → I → vi7 in D major; i7 → iv7 → VII7 → IIImaj7 in C minor; ii7 → V7 → I → I7 in D major. 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.

Yes! In D major: The I–vi–ii–V turnaround / circle-of-fifths progression (ii → V → I → vi) shows up in the intro at 0:00 and the verse at 0:09. A round trip through related chords, with the dominant setting up the return home. The ii–V–I progression (ii → V → I) shows up in the verse at 0:33 and 1:21. Jazz’s trusty route home: set up some tension, turn it up, then let it resolve. In C minor: The minor circle-of-fifths segment (i → iv → VII → III) shows up in the chorus at 2:24 and 2:32. A short chain of falling fifths takes a minor opening toward its brighter relative major.
