Its G
unless its the minor key, and I still don't know how to work that out
The other day I had a lucky guess when I asked a knowledgable friend if one of the tunes I was playing was in a minor key, it was, the melancholy sound of that one was the only clue I had
Starting and finishing notes, the first note is a B but that is one of two lead in notes before the first complete bar. The first note of the first bar is G as is the last note of the tune. Chords given are G,Em,Am,C and D
I seem to remember some strange things called tonic triads at school which seem to bear some resemblance to this - if only I had paid attention or played an instrument at the time!
