GUEST,Peace What is the process you use to work out chords (152* d) RE: What is the process you use to work out chords 18 Sep 09


(C) Happy birthday to (?) you

Regarding the (?): Since you are in the key of C, and since many many songs do use just three chords, you have two chords left to 'deal with'. Try both. Hum along as we do this.

Happy birthday to -- try an F on the you. Sounds awful, right? Now, try singing the 'you' with a G chord. WOW. OK. Now we can move on.

(C) Happy birthday to (G) you   

Now, for the next line

(?) Happy birthday to you (?)

You tell me what the next two chords are.
