The Edge of Glory

This transcription starts in A major.

The estimated tempo is 128 BPM, calculated from the median spacing between detected beats. This is a summary of the transcription; timing can vary during the song.

Recurring four-chord sequences in this transcription include A → E → F♯m → D (16 occurrences); E → D → A → E (4 occurrences); D → A → E → D (4 occurrences). These are exact chord-label matches within sections, not a complete harmonic analysis.

Recurring relative progressions include I → V → vi → IV in A major; I → V → IV → I in A major; V → IV → I → V in A major. Numerals refer to the key active at that point; uppercase means major and lowercase means minor. Minor keys use natural-minor scale degrees.

The transcription contains repeated matches to the four-chord pop progression (I → V → vi → IV), e.g. chorus at 1:03 in A major; chorus at 1:11 in A major. Extensions, inversions and suspensions are simplified for matching; the chord labels retain them. These are chord-order matches, not confirmation of a particular rhythm, bass line or influence.

The transcription starts in 1/8. Later meter changes are detected at 0:00 (4/4).

The detected sections are intro (0:00) → verse (0:18) → pre-chorus (0:48) → chorus (1:03) → interlude (1:35) → verse (1:43) → pre-chorus (2:13) → chorus (2:28) → interlude (3:02) → chorus (4:02) → outro (5:02).

The transcribed version lasts 5:20. Other recordings or edits may have a different duration.
