Sea Change, by Stacking Theory

Okay, I think I got this right - the song starts in A, heads over to B, and then comes back to A (I hope)

We start with the Please/Breath section, which bounces between an Amaj7 and F#m (the I/vi of A)

Then suddenly ‘you’re giving me something’ in C#m / Dmaj7 / A ( the iii/IV/I of A)

I start carrying on about what I haven’t got as I slide down Abm to G to F# and land in the Sea Change which swings between F# and E (the V/IV of B), until it bounces back through C#m and E to my old pals Amaj7 / F#m (as a journey through the iii/V/I/vi of A)

Of course - I could be wildly wrong, and am happy to be corrected.

lyrics

Baby

please let this moment start
i’m looking forward to cautiously warming your heart
breathe - give this half a chance
i came and i saw and i conquered and all that i wanted was art

you’re giving me something that i haven’t got

that I haven’t got
that I haven’t got
no I haven’t got

you are my sea change
carry me on your wave
you are my sea change
bury me in this place
you are my sea change
you are my sea change
you are my sea change
you are my sea change

please
let this moment start
