“We’ve been here once before”
CHORUS:
this song is in the key of A major (the II chord in A major key is B-minor). But the blossoms
use reverse polarity and play a B-major chord instead of the minor to give an ascending
feel. Same thing with the F#-major chord.
A5 E B F#

BRIDGE:
The solo consists of an F#minor pentatonic scale over the verse. Simple as that. There
are a few good fundamental riffs in the solo. But other than that, there’s nothing about
it that would make me want to play it or tab it out. This is a good song to improvise the solo
on your own if you want to cover it.
