Composition

Some have considered the music of the song similar to that on Morrison's second studio album Astral Weeks.[1] The song is a moderate tempoed acoustic ballad in 4/4 time, with one 5/8 bar before the vocal comes in. The song is in the key of G major, with the chord progression of Em-C-Em-C-Em-C-D-D.[2][3]

gollark: The winners would be determined entirely by noise and where the ability boundaries go.
