What each degree does
ICmaj
Feels like home — complete rest, where the piece departs from and returns to. The major tonic, where everything settles.
#ivoF#dim
A very common passing diminished chord — on the raised 4th, it leads strongly toward V (or toward I over the 5th). A brief, directional chromatic tension.
VG7
Tension pulling home — the chord that 'wants to resolve' to I; it closes or opens sections. The dominant, the engine of the key.
ICmaj
Feels like home — complete rest, where the piece departs from and returns to. The major tonic, where everything settles.
