Why it sounds this way
Storyteller is a sad chord progression that moves vi – ii – V – I – IV – ii – III7 – vi (Am Dm G C F Dm E7 Am in C). The feeling walks longing → wander → tension → home → open → wander → pull · poised → longing. The extra quality words (poised) are why the colors soften or spark: sevenths and sus chords never quite say the feeling in a straight line. That matches a small tip for this mood: minor chords lean on blue. That is why it fits a scene like “an old photo album.” Play it on piano or guitar above, and switch keys if you want it higher or lower.
