The song was written in the key of B-flat major and is played in 4/4 common time, popularly known at the time as a foxtrot. Ukulele arrangements are in G major. The main body of the song is built upon two common chord progressions (not including fills). The first is 1-2-5-1, which in Bb walks up from Bb to C7 to F7, resolving back to Bb.
The ' 50s progression (also known as the "Heart and Soul" chords, the "Stand by Me" changes, [1] [2] the doo-wop progression [3]: 204 and the "ice cream changes" [4]) is a chord progression and turnaround used in Western popular music.
If the original chord in a song is G7 (G, B, D, F), the tritone substitution would be D ♭ 7 (D ♭, F, A ♭, C ♭). Note that the 3rd and 7th notes of the G7 chord are found in the D ♭ 7 chord (albeit with a change of role). The tritone substitution is widely used for V7 chords in the popular jazz chord progression "ii-V-I".
It can be represented by the integer notation {0, 4, 6, 10}.. This chord is enharmonically equivalent to its own second inversion.That is, it has the same notes as the dominant seventh flat five chord a tritone away (although they may be spelled differently), so for instance, F ♯ 7 ♭ 5 and C 7 ♭ 5 are enharmonically equivalent.
This is possible because the ♭ II 7 has the same third and seventh as the V 7, but inverted; for example, the third and seventh of G 7 are B and F, while the third and seventh of D ♭ 7 are F and C ♭, which is enharmonic to B. Performing this substitution (in this case, changing Dm 7 –G 7 –C maj7 to Dm 7 –D ♭ 7 –C maj7) creates ...
The most common chords are tertian, constructed using a sequence of major thirds (spanning 4 semitones) and/or minor thirds (3 semitones). Since there are 3 third intervals in a seventh chord (4 notes) and each can be major or minor, there are 7 possible permutations (the 8th one, consisted of four major thirds, results in a non-seventh augmented chord, since a major third equally divides the ...
A suspended chord (or sus chord) is a musical chord in which the (major or minor) third is omitted and replaced with a perfect fourth or a major second. [1] The lack of a minor or a major third in the chord creates an open sound, while the dissonance between the fourth and fifth or second and root creates tension.
In Klezmer, it is usually transposed to C, where the main chords used are C, F, and G7 (sometimes Gm). [10] To hear a modern Mixolydian scale, one can play a G-major scale on the piano, but change the F# to F natural.
