Recurring four-chord sequences in this transcription include Em → C → Em → C (10 occurrences); Dm → Gm → Dm/b3 → Cm/b3 (5 occurrences); Gm → Dm/b3 → Cm → Dm (3 occurrences). These are exact chord-label matches within sections, not a complete harmonic analysis.

Here are a few patterns to play with: i → VI → i → VI in E minor; v → i → v/b3 → iv/b3 in G minor; i → v/b3 → iv → v in G 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.

Yes! In E minor: The Aeolian shuttle (i → VI) shows up in the verse at 1:56 and 2:02. A minor home chord and its major VI trade places in a gentle light-and-shadow loop.
