Janice in NJ Name this chord progression (14) RE: Name this chord progression 08 Jan 07


It's much more useful if you put in those G7's as others have suggested, so you get something more like this as the foundation to work from.

C - A7 - D7 - G7 - C

C - A7 - D7 - G7

C - C7 - F - F7

C - A7 - D7 - G7 - C

I say "foundation to work from" because the chords you actually play are going to be more complex that what is written here. For example, the tonic C at any given moment may have an a note added, making it a C6. Also, the A7, D7, and G7 chords at any given moment may be A, D, and G, or A6, D6, and G6. The D7 chord, if played as as a C7 slid up two frets, but with the first string left open as an e note, is really a D9. Most important of all, that F7 at the end of the third line is ripe for many possible substitutions, including F6, D9, and various diminished chords.
