Play only the root on the first beat of each change: C# (bar 1, C#), F# (bar 2, F#), G# (bar 3, G#7), C# (bar 4, C#), A# (bar 5, A#m), D# (bar 6, D#m), G# (bar 7, G#7), C# (bar 8, C#). Keep counting through every bar that holds the same chord; the form resolves back to C#.
When each chord arrives, land on its third and hold it for a beat: E# over C#, A# over F#, B# over G#7, C# over A#m, F# over D#m. Then repeat with the seventh (see the table) to hear how the line leads into the next chord.
