A new section begins despite the same chord progression — a tiny pre-chorus gives way to a clearly hook-driven chorus. The melody leans heavily on B–D–G, adding colourful tensions over A minor, before repeating the hook on C to highlight the maj7, 9 and 6 flavours. The second idea moves into a clean G-major arpeggio (B–G–D) right on the G chord, setting up the shift into the second half of the chorus. #TaylorSwift #SongAnalysis #Songwriting #MusicTheory #ChordProgression #LetsTalkSong
