Just 2 chorales composed in the arts & crafts room of a loony bin.

Progressions are
EM:
I, IV 6/3, viiº, I,
iii 6/4/3, v, ii 6/4/3, V 6/5/3 of bVII,
bVII, IV 6/4/3 of bVII, Ger+6 of bII, V of bII,
bII, V, I.

2nd song is
CM:
I, I 6/3, IV, bVII (passing)
vi 6/4, ii, iv 6/4, iii 6/4/3 (neighbor)
iv 6/4 serving as a pivot chord modulating to i 6/4 in fm, V7, i, bIII
bVII 6/3 (passing), viiº7 of N, N, V 6/5/3
I, I 6/3, IV, iii7 (passing)
ii7, ii, iv 6/4, iii 6/4/3 (neighbor)
iv 6/4, ii, V7 of V serving as a pivot chord modulating back to V7 in CM, I 6/3
I

[edit:]
I suppose some lead sheet chords for those of you not too well versed in theory analysis.
EM:
EM, AM/C#, d#º, EM
g#mm7/d#, bm/d natural, f#mm7/c#, AMm7/C#
DM, GMM7/D, Db A F B (I suppose that's how you notate an Augmented 6th chord), CM
FM/A, BM, EM

CM:
CM, CM/E, FM, BbM,
am/e, dm, fm/c, emm7/b
fm/c, CMm7, fm, AbM
EbM/G, fº7, GbM, CMm7/E
FM, FM/A, BbM, amm7
gmm7, gm, bbm/f, amm7/e
bbm/f, gm, GMm7, CM/E

Ooh, I liked that, though the Pitch macro should be changed to reflect the new tempo.

I might keep working on these two. I didn't have any access to any musical devices when I wrote these, so I'm glad that with pure theory something can still sound good.
Now to add non-chord tones & rhythm and maybe some Pxx to get a better temperament.

We can't all have perfect mental health. I was there for a week. Much better now though.

It's not that bad really. Mostly just a safe environment.

You hardly have to write specifically to avoid the parallel 5ths and 8ves. There's generally always a way to voice two chords to avoid 'em.

Also, when in doubt, 7th chord :p
