With All I Am by Hillsong

This song is in the key of D.

The 1st part of the verse goes like this…

I –> V/M –> VIm7 –> VIm7/5 –> IV –> IV/5

The 2nd part is the same except that it has an additional IIM7 chord towards the end…

I –> V/M –> VIm7 –> VIm7/5 –> IV –> IIm7 –> IV/5

See “The M Bass” post for the “M” notation above.

In the key of D, this is translated into….

D –> A/C# –> Bm7 –> Bm7/A –> G –> Em7 –> G/A
By applying chord substitution to improvise the minor-7 chords with major chords (see “The 3 Minor Chords”), we get…

D –> A/C# –> D/B –> D/A –> G –> G/E –> G/A

See the video for illustration…

The chorus goes like this…

I –> V/M –> IV/M… (repeat)… IIm7 –> IV/5 –> I

In the key of D, this is…

D –> A/C# –> G/B… (repeat)… Em7 –> G/A –> D

Or in the “Piano Cheat” way…

D –> A/C# –> G/B… (repeat)… G/E –> G/A –> D
