Chords with lyrics
----NOTES----
Final 3 "chords" of each verse are actually just the one note represented.
However, if chords are desired, they are written.
Starts in C#m, goes to Dm, ends in Ebm? Yep. There's no easier way to write it.
DmDm to EbmEbm makes sense because they're both flat keys (common chord Bb majorBb used for modulation).
C# minorC#m to DmDm makes sense because they share the note A augmentedA (common tone modulation).
(for minor second modulation examples:
http://youtu.be/nmfaSU19D4Q?, 48s-55s D-Eb, 78s-86s eventually Db-Dm, and 86s-105s Bb-Am.)
Also, it occurred to me that this is ripping off the title song of Fame: The Musical's tutti "Remember"'s.
