Imagine

The haunting verse to John Lennon's Imagine is based on a simple alternation between the 1 chord and the 4 chord, exactly as we study in IFR Jam Tracks Level 2: Pure Harmony Essentials. Later, the chorus includes the surprising movement from 3D to 4 which we study in IFR Jam Tracks Level 4: Mixed Harmony Essentials.
