?Lonely in Your Nightmare? Chords Verse 1 Principal Key: D Major I IV I IV D G D G Even on the darkest night when empty promise means empty hand I IV vi II D G Bm E And soldiers coming home like shadows turning red I IV I IV D G D G And when the lights of hope are fading quickly then look to me I IV vi II D G Bm E I'll be your homing angel I'll be in your head Chorus Principal Key: D Major IV I V G D A Because you're lonely in your nightmare let me in IV I V G D A And there's heat beneath your winter let me in Verse 2 Principal Key: D Major I D I see the delta traces living lonely out on the limb And a passing glimmer warm beneath your skin Please tread gently on the ground when all around you earth turns to fire II E Only get a second chance when danger's on the wind Bridge Principal Key: D Major bIII V bIII V bIII V IV I F , A/E , F , A/E , F , A/E , G , D Verse 3 Principal Key: D Major I D Must be lucky whether when you find the kind of wind that you need Come on show me all the light and shade that made your name I know you've got it in your head I've seen that look before II E You've built your refuge turns you captive all the same Outro Principal Key: D Major V A (riffs) Transitions Verse to Chorus Chords: E to G Harmonic Function: II in D Major to IV in D Major Interval: up 3 semitones / down 9 semitones Notes There is no key change to the Chorus. The reason why it sounds like such a great transition is because of the classic II (V/V) to IV change. Chorus to Verse Chords: A to D Harmonic Function: V in D Major to I in D Major Interval: up 5 semitones / down 7 semitones Chorus to Bridge Chords: A to F Harmonic Function: V in D Major to bIII in D Major Interval: up 8 semitones / down 4 semitones Bridge to Verse Chords: D to D Harmonic Function: I in D Major to I in D Major Interval: (none) Notes This is one of the few times where Duran Duran ends a section on the same chord as the beginning of the next section. It works well because of their arrangement. Chorus to Outro Chords: A to A Harmonic Function: V in D Major to V in D Major Interval: (none) Notes An interesting bassline makes this sound like a new ?section? of sorts?but it?s just a riff over the last chord of the Chorus.
