Chords Song Book
Posted on Saturday, February 25th, 2006 at 11:51 am
If you have only the melody line, how do you determine the key and chords for a song?
I have the melody line for a few songs, and I am trying first to figure out what key they’re in. Then I’ll try and figure out what chords are correct to actually be able to play the songs on my Piano.
How can I go about doing this? I know that it is not a simple process. I have looked at some websites online, and read a book or two about it, but it is all a bit to complicated to take in.
I am not a musical novice by any means, but can anyone give some direction in upper-level layman’s terms?
Thanks heaps!
Edit: I don’t think that’s feasible. Do you know how much work that would be? Not only would I have to write out the melody so many times, but I would then have to find all of the corresponding chords for the song in every key.
just try it in all the keys
