This next phrase is going to be different than the other 2. For one it's going to be 3 bars in length. We're going to use 3 new melodic words. The phrase we're using is the following:

Something that I - could have had
Now I'm sad

This phrase we'll break up the syllables into 4+3+3

Something that I - 4 ___ Could have had - 3 ____ Now I'm sad - 3

Spoken example

For the first new melodic word we're going to use a 1st inversion, 4 note chord with a scale segment at the end

4 Note Chord - Something that I

Now what we do different here is we're going to have the the last note of the scale segment of the 4 note chord, become the first note of the next chord. When it does that, it becomes a color note, E going to F of the F chord and the F goes down to the A, the chord notes, a minor 6th. E-F-A becomes a melodic word, creating a sequence that we'll continue with the next 3 notes. The next 3 notes D-E-G, the D is a color note to the E and the goes down to the G, a major 6th, the chord notes.

E-F-A melodic word _____ D-E-G melodic word

E-F-A goes with "could have had. D-E-G goes with "now I'm sad"
