Harmonic Highlights:

  • Extensive use of the diatonic I-vi-ii-V progression (Gmaj7-Em7-Am7-D7) firmly establishes the G major tonality.
  • Frequent ii-V (Am7-D7) cycles provide classic tension-release leading back to the tonic.
  • The D7sus chord offers a common temporary suspension before resolving to the Gmaj7 tonic.
  • A prominent G7 (I7) chord suggests a V/IV function, hinting at a potential subdominant (C major) movement or a blues-inflected dominant.

Improvisation Focus: G Major Scale and its diatonic modes (especially Mixolydian over V7 chords).

Difficulty Rating: 2/5 - The song features foundational diatonic jazz harmony with common ii-V-I progressions and only minor harmonic deviations.
