Minor view
B minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = G (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = A (natural-minor colour)
- #7 = A# (harmonic-minor leading tone from the V chord)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: we can't honestly pick a side here — the song moves freely between D major and B minor because D is heard 14 times against 5 for Bm and the major V chord points straight at Bm. Try reading the chords both ways and see which feels more like home to you.
Chord degrees: major and relative minor
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to D or to Bm; comparing both readings is a practice of its own.
Every chord of the key, listed 1 to 7 separately for each key. Chords played in the song show how often they appear; chords from outside the scale sit next to their own degree.

Analysis
The key pair is D major and its relative B minor (2 sharps). 7 different chords appear 66 times in total; 6 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Bm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from D, the same F#7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Bm.
Chord movement
- A7 D DV7 → Iauthentic cadence BmVII7 → III ×5
- F#m Bm7 Diii → vi7 Bmv → i7natural-minor cadence ×2
- Em7 F#7 Dii7 → V7/vi Bmiv7 → V7iv → V ×1
The move to watch is A7 → D, heard 5 times. From the D side it reads V7 → I (authentic cadence: the strongest arrival home); from the Bm side it is VII7 → III. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- D major pentatonic and B minor pentatonic are the same five notes (D – E – F# – A – B): start from D for a brighter phrase, from B for a bluesier one.
- Over Em7, land on E, G, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over A7, land on A, C#, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over D, land on D, F#, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- When F#7 comes, swap the scale's A for A#: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song's harmonic story
The first chord is Em7; the ear learns where home is within a second. Em7, A7, D, F#m carry the song: ii7–V7–I–iii relative to D, iv7–VII7–III–v relative to Bm. F#7 is the interesting twist: in D it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Bm it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on A7 → D (V7 → I in D, VII7 → III in Bm): authentic cadence — the strongest arrival home. Ending on F#m, the song seals D as home.
