1. Searchin’ For The Dream
Howling to the Heavens
Intro is Fmaj sus4, voiced on guitar as : x8856x x88565 x88555 x8858
Then lil vamp between A7sus and D7sus a few times.
Main verse:
|| Bb maj69 | Bbmaj 69 / C in bass | D- | D- |
| Bb maj69 | | | ||
This is the main gist of it. Lots of F major pentatonic melodic ideas from traditional Chinese music.
Variation part:
|| Bb maj69 | | C maj | |
| Eb maj7#11 | **** |D- | ||
**** bass bumping between Eb and F notes.
Chorus:
|| Bb maj | A- | Bbmaj | C maj |
| Bb maj | C maj | D maj | C maj ||
2. I’m In You
G minor vocals intro followed by Eb lydian riff playing off: xxx886 xxx885
Gurgly riff plays C to D, upwards F to G, back down C to D, then higher G to A. Whole step pattern!
Enter Bjork.
Bass comes in with notes Bb, C, Eb, and F line, roughly. Saju setting up F mixolydian vibe!
Main chord changes.
|| F maj7 | | Db maj7 | |
| F maj7 | | Eb maj7 | F maj7 |
| Eb maj7 / F in bass | | Ab maj7 | |
| F maj7 | | Eb maj7 | |
| F maj7#11 | | Eb maj7 | ||
3. Adios
Intro:
|| Db7(b13) | C maj69 | Db7(b13) | C maj69 ||
Then:
||: Bb maj7 | A7(b13) | A-7 | D-7 |
| Bb maj7 | A7(b9 b13) | A-7 | B7 C7 :||
Then:
|| G-7 | C7 | A-7 | Ab7(#11) |
| G-7 | C7(b9) | A-7 | D-7 ||
Form repeat! Then sweet A – pentatonic/ F major pentatonic melody bit! Focusing on melodic notes C, D, G, and A. Then a wonky:
||: Ab maj7 | F maj7 | BLURRY, C7alt? | F maj7 :||
Ending synth chord BIG OL’ Cmaj13 stacked straight up I believe, so that if played on piano would look like C E G B D F# A
4. Lilac
Melody outlining G major. Vamp and enjoy lilac colored C maj7#11, G maj7.
5. An Old Man Speaks So
Trying to keep this simple, very similar chords as first song.
Intro is D-7 and C major.
Most of the verse is D-7, C major, Bb maj7, C major. Like All Along The Watch Tower.
A7 sus and F major pop up here and there.
Chorus does F major, F major 7, Eb major, D-7. Then Bb major, F maj/A in bass, Ab major 7, C7/G in bass.
6. I Know
Another straight forward harmony!
Intro is E maj7 to B maj7 a few times, then G#-.
Main bit of this tune hangs on G#- and bops between D#- and C#-.
The end of the verse leading into the chorus, Saju NAILS G natural, setting up D#7.
Following bit is: E major, F# major, G#-, B major.
Then A major, F# major, B major, B maj7.
Then E major, F# major, G#-, B major.
Then A major, F# major, G#sus, G#major.
7. Flying High
Opening instrumental sets up C Japanese scale, using notes C, Db, F, G and Bb.
When vocals come in , we hear (I think) vaguely F maj7, D-7, Bb maj, C maj.
Chorus sounds like F maj, Eb maj, D-7, Db maj Eb maj.
8. Unknown!
What a mystery!
