how to make a bridge
When writing a chord sequence for song, and you feel that it needs a bridge, is there a formula that can be used to decide on appropriate chords?
As an example: I have a song that is based around Fmaj7 and Cmaj7 for the verses and then goes to F G7 C F, F G7 C Am for the chorus. I really feel that this tune could be better with a four bar bridge. What chords could I use? and is there some kind of formula that can be used to make a bridge in any particular key?
I hope all of that makes sense. What I suppose I am asking is how to connect a verse to a chorus using a bridge. I know that there are no hard and fast rules, but is there some kind of guideline at all?
I am not very clever with theory, so at present I just kind of fumble around until something sounds O.K. I need to have a way of speeding up the process.
