GENERAL STRUCTURE OF SONGS
a. Intro
The introduction establishes melodic, harmonic, and/or rhythmic related
to the main body of song.

b. Verse
It is the section of the song structure that tells the story. This is the
exposition, describing the scene or the person, or an emotion. There are
usually two or three verses in a row that have the same musical
structure, the same rhyme and poetic meter, but different words. The
second verse builds on the picture painted in the first verse, etc.
GENERAL STRUCTURE OF SONGS
c. Chorus of Refrain
A chorus is the most repeated section, so it’s the easiest remembered. A chorus is the
summary of the song’s story. All the verses have been leading up to the chorus, and is usually
the part of the song people sing along with. A chorus can come at the beginning of the song
structure; it can also start in the middle, or come at the end. In fact, some songs don’t have
choruses at all. Some people are usually confused to differentiate between choruses and
refrain. A refrain is any line that repeats in the song lyric, while a chorus is any group of lines
that repeat.

d. Break
A break is actually a brief “rest” or “pause” for the core melody within a song used to add
further dimension and excitement. It may include a quick instrumental solo or drum interlude
or it may be a brief moment of silence, or a combination of each of these elements.
GENERAL STRUCTURE OF SONGS
e. Bridge
This is the part of the song that shifts. It can suddenly change tempo, or
volume, or instrumentation. The bridge is the section that gives the
audience time to reflect on the story, or gives them the “climax” or
conclusion of the story through verses and chorus. Bridges can be used
to give the singer a break.

f. Outro or Coda
This is the end of the road for the song. It can repeat the intro, chorus or
a refrain as an outro, or a bridge with an instrumental solo.
