I picked out a bridge section that I think might work with the rest of the progression and I wanted to see if you thought so too. So the new section starts with the same pattern as the second part of the progression (just shifted up a full step) and then it resolves back to the F#. The new part would be inserted once or twice as a bridge connecting the end of the 2nd part back to the 1st and would go: E minor B major D major A major E minor B major F# major

I don’t currently have any lyrics, but here is a link to a YouTube video of me playing what I have so far. I really liked the chord progression when I figured it out, but since I couldn’t really break it down and explain it without all your help, I had kind of been stymied working on the rest of the song. youtu.be/qoYlykJ9ROo

Wow! Thank you so much. I had really been struggling to put that all together, but I really liked the pattern so I didn’t want to abandon it. And you are definitely right, the G major was the chord that I was having the most difficulty contextualizing. That is a really awesome explanation, I am still working on my theory and it helps a lot to have someone actually explain it in a real application instead of just hypothetically. I am stoked now to get back to work on it. Thanks again
