  2. List of variations on Pachelbel's Canon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_variations_on...

    It has inspired songs such as Rob Paravonian's "Pachelbel Rant" and the Axis of Awesome's "Four Chords", which comment on the number of popular songs borrowing the same tune or harmonic structure. [1] [2] "Four Chords" does not directly focus on the chords from Pachelbel's Canon, instead focusing on the I–V–vi–IV progression. [3]

  3. I–V–vi–IV progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I–V–vi–IV_progression

    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.

  4. Chord progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_progression

    The same major scale also has three minor chords, the supertonic chord (ii), mediant chord (iii), and submediant chord (vi), respectively. These chords stand in the same relationship to one another (in the relative minor key ) as do the three major chords, so that they may be viewed as the first (i), fourth (iv) and fifth (v) degrees of the ...

  5. Guitar chord - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guitar_chord

    The suspended fourth chord is often played inadvertently, or as an adornment, by barring an additional string from a power chord shape (e.g., E5 chord, playing the second fret of the G string with the same finger barring strings A and D); making it an easy and common extension in the context of power chords.

  6. '50s progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/'50s_progression

    The vi chord before the IV chord in this progression (creating I–vi–IV–V–I) is used as a means to prolong the tonic chord, as the vi or submediant chord is commonly used as a substitute for the tonic chord, and to ease the voice leading of the bass line: in a I–vi–IV–V–I progression (without any chordal inversions) the bass ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tablature

    Guitar and bass tab is used in pop, rock, folk, and country music lead sheets, fake books, and songbooks, and it also appears in instructional books and websites. Tab may be given as the only notation (as with chord tab in songbooks that only include lyrics and chords), or, as with guitar solo transcriptions, tab and standard notation may be ...

  8. List of guitar tunings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_guitar_tunings

    Alternative variants are easy from this tuning, but because several chords inherently omit the lowest string, it may leave some chords relatively thin or incomplete with the top string missing (the D chord, for instance, must be fretted 5-4-3-2-3 to include F#, the tone a major third above D). Baroque guitar standard tuning – a–D–g–b–e

  9. Chord substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_substitution

    The substitute chord must have some harmonic quality and degree of function in common with the original chord, and often only differs by one or two notes. Scott DeVeaux describes a "penchant in modern jazz for harmonic substitution." [8] One simple type of chord substitution is to replace a given chord with a chord that has the same function.
