The progression is a CM with a bass C an octave lower, moving to an F MAJ 7 with the bass note moving up a step to a D.

If the notes were all together in the same octave I'd say D9, but the flavor of this is more scaled toward the Fmaj7. (I had to edit three times so far to say major). It's a subtle recurring kind of passage in this song. And to be clear this isn't my song. It's a cover someone asked me to as an experiment to hear my production take of her song. The story started that some years ago I heard a song of hers that sent my mind down a thought path that resulted in a completely different song, just inspired by the subject of her song.

I guess I will have to play the main lines over what Real Band gives me. Damn you arthritis for making my hands so unwilling to cooperate!!!


Eddie, I think you have another typo. D9 is D-F#-A-C-E.
A Dm9 is D-F-A-C-E.
