I · vi · IV · V
Storytelling is a cinematic chord progression that moves I – vi – IV – V (C Am F G in C). The feeling walks home → longing → open → tension. Most of these are plain triads, so the colors feel direct and the outline stays clear. That matches a small tip for this mood: borrowed chords open the sky. That is why it fits a scene like “once upon a montage.” Play it on piano or guitar above, and switch keys if you want it higher or lower.
