I-V-vi-IV
One more look at what you missed.
Four chords, over and over: I–V–vi–IV.
In C major: C, G, Am, F. It is the loop under “Let It Be”, “With or Without You” and “Don't Stop Believin'”.
The first three chords of the loop.
vi is minor, so the loop dips darker before IV, F, brings it round.
No sound? Check your volume, and that your phone is not on silent.
Which chord of the loop is minor?
The loop never quite lands, so it can repeat.
IV leads back to I and the loop starts again. That is why whole verses and choruses run on it.
It is always the same loop: I, V, vi, IV. Which one is missing at the end?
The loop in G: G, D, Em.
Then C, the IV, and round again.
The loop is I, V, vi, IV. Did it stop on vi, the minor one, or go on to IV?
In letters, the loop changes with the key.
In C it is C, G, Am, F. In G the numerals stay the same, and the letters move.
In G major, which chords make I–V–vi–IV?
