The song was released as a digital download on June 23, 2009, and as the first single from Jay-Z's 11th studio album, The Blueprint 3. The song made its world premiere on the New York radio station Hot 97 on June 5. [1] Its lyrics address the overusage of Auto-Tune in the music industry.
The term "chord chart" can also describe a plain ASCII text, digital representation of a lyric sheet where chord symbols are placed above the syllables of the lyrics where the performer should change chords. [6] Continuing with the Amazing Grace example, a "chords over lyrics" version of the chord chart could be represented as follows:

The most basic three-chord progressions of Western harmony have only major chords. In each key, three chords are designated with the Roman numerals (of musical notation): The tonic (I), the subdominant (IV), and the dominant (V). While the chords of each three-chord progression are numbered (I, IV, and V), they appear in other orders. [f] [18]
The progression is also used entirely with minor chords[i-v-vii-iv (g#, d#, f#, c#)] in the middle section of Chopin's etude op. 10 no. 12. However, using the same chord type (major or minor) on all four chords causes it to feel more like a sequence of descending fourths than a bona fide chord progression.
He used an Imperial Bösendorfer piano (with 97 keys instead of 88, having an extra octave on the low range), an Oberheim OB-X synthesizer (as seen in the song's music video), and his homemade Red Special electric guitar. The song reached number 10 on the UK Singles Chart and number three in Germany.
