The verse has roughly the same chord progression as album art for Autumn LeavesAutumn Leaves's A section. The chorus is a ii V I

Interesting to hear bluesy playing over this progression! Another example would be Eric Clapton's rendition of album art for Autumn LeavesAutumn Leaves

The lyrics here reference the chord progression used in the song - "4 7 3 6 2 5 1 to put my mind at ease" refer to the chords used in the song.

The lyrics immediately before this are "Someone wrote this song before, and I could tell you where it's from" - which makes sense, because they're the chords to album art for Autumn LeavesAutumn Leaves, a well known jazz standard.

Weirdly self referential/meta lyrics!
