Hang on Now

Intro/Chorus   Hang on Girl Meet My Heart; It knows the best time for new love to start            Hang on Now Meet My Heart; It Knows the best time for us to start                   Hang on Girl Won?t You Remain?                                          Tyler?s Notes on Intro/Chorus The Intro/Chorus uses chords mostly from (modal).    One obvious exception is the chord that replaces the   rarely used chord?borrowing the perfect fifth ()   from the Classical minor.  The we hear before the verse vocal   initiates a key change to E Minor. Verse Principal Key: No sooner     than I turn my back and then       It’s so hard to find   I’m on the decline with you.   Tyler?s Notes on the Verse   The Verse begins on the 3rd of the scale...C.  We know that this section is in A Minor rather than Major because of the chord. Pre-Chorus   Principal Key:    Were I to know your feelings?            Is there something between me and you?                           Can’t pretend you surprise me and    Baby it?s hurting me too           Tyler?s Notes on the Pre-Chorus   Again Beggs taps into the ?more modern? modal minor   ignoring the sharp 7 of the key () by using and chords.    Ending the section with an allows for an easy transition into   the chord that begins the Chorus.  This section is not particularly interesting chord-wise and stays safely within key.  Still it is perhaps the most beautiful section of the song thanks to Stuart Neale’s pad voicings on the Jupiter-8 synthesizer (most notably on the chord on the second and fourth time through the progression).
