I just recently wrote down scales for each key (ABCD A# B# etc) and the chords that can be played in each scale so I could memorize the scales and make up of chords (I wonder if that is a good approach). I only wrote down the regular major and minor chords, and then I came across the amy whinehouse song and im like "major 7th and minor 7th, what is that?". I had to figure out what those chords meant via google. It even helps that there are lessons here. yay!!
woahh..all these chords, I have a lot to learn!!
I was excited the other day when I was able to figure out some basic chords to play along to one of my favourite songs.
It must take a lot of skill though to hear a song and know what chords are played from the plethora of chords that exists. I cant wait to get there
