Hey, Leedogg, how did you do that weird white background thing?

Oh, and NTM, do you mean to say that "5" chords don't have inversions? I don't think that the terms "power chord" and "X5 chord" are interchangeable, i.e. a D power chord and a D5 are not necessarily the same, e.g. xx023x is a D5 but not a D power chord, whereas x57xxx is both a D power chord and a D5 chord.

That being said, I see how power chords don't have inversions, since, by definition they have root note in the first position. Also, I'm pretty sure power chords are particular to guitars.

However, why couldn't a "5" chord have an inversion? e.g. couldn't a D5 chord be played x0023x, and the key would define whether it's a D or an A chord?
