Rajesh

 

Thank you so much

 

Hi Rajesh,
Wow!! Superb song!!! Love the Bass used in this song!!!
Easy set of chords as well.

For convenience, I transposed to Dm scale and played.... Loved the progression from start to finish.....
Particularly, I loved the below chords in Pallavi and Charanam..

In Pallavi:
[Dm] Muthamizh [A] kaviyey [Dm] varuga
Dm - A - Dm is superb!
[A] Kaalangal [Dm] naam vaazha [A7] naal vandha[Dm]dhu
A - Dm - A7 - Dm is awesome here!

In Charanam:
For the 1st 8 lines, there are only 2 chords - Dm and A - It was like a breeze to play!! Attagaasam!!
[Dm] Kaalangal nerangal [G] nam sondham
[A] Inbam [G] kodi
Progression in last 2 lines is fantastic!!

Thank you very much indeed Rajesh!! Kakakiteenga ponga!!!

Kind regards,
Vijay
