Chords

 

There are tons of chords out there, Chazz has picked a few that he likes to use.
Hopefully there may help you with your song writing or may be fun to just jam with.

There will be more added to this section soon so check back!

Let's Get Started!

These Chords are written in Scale form to help with song writing, you can play any of them in any order and they will sound good together.

**Tip #1**
Diminished Chords are good as passing Chords.
You shouldn't stay on them for very long

**Tip #2**
You don't have to play these in any particular order.
You'll soon notice that some of the Chords in different orders may begin to sound
like some songs you here on the radio.
