G#m G# B D#

6 chord progressions in G sharp minor

i-iv-v-i: G#m – C#m – D#m – G#m

The basic minor progression: home, away, back home. (G#m = G# B D# · C#m = C# E G# · D#m = D# F# A# · G#m = G# B D#)

i-VI-III-VII: G#m – E – B – F#

A big, epic minor loop heard in film music and rock. (G#m = G# B D# · E = E G# B · B = B D# F# · F# = F# A# C#)

i-iv-V-i: G#m – C#m – D# – G#m

Like the basic minor progression, but the major V pulls harder back home. (G#m = G# B D# · C#m = C# E G# · D# = D# F## A# · G#m = G# B D#)

iiø-V-i: A#m7b5 – D#7 – G#m7

The minor version of the jazz cadence. (A#m7b5 = A# C# E G# · D#7 = D# F## A# C# · G#m7 = G# B D# F#)

i-VII-VI-VII: G#m – F# – E – F#

A rocking back-and-forth that never quite lands. (G#m = G# B D# · F# = F# A# C# · E = E G# B · F# = F# A# C#)

i-VI-iv-V: G#m – E – C#m – D#

It builds up and the last chord leads you home. (G#m = G# B D# · E = E G# B · C#m = C# E G# · D# = D# F## A#)
