Pages: 1  2  3  4  5  6     Suggested Tempo: 120
Lowercase = minor
Uppercase = Major
small circle o = diminished

The chords in C Major are as follows:

I   =   C
ii  =   Dm
iii =   Em
IV  =   F
V   =   G
vi  =   Am
vii =   Bo or Bdim

Changing the Lowercase to Uppercase gives

I   =   C
II  =   D
III =   E
IV  =   F
V   =   G
VI  =   A
VII =   B

We can also have the following

 I   =   C
bII  =   Db
bIII =   Eb
 IV  =   F
 V   =   G
bVI  =   Ab
bVII =   Bb

Turnarounds can use any ONE SET of the above or
a mixture of all three sets.


1) The turnaround is usually used in bars 11 and 12
   to take you home ( tonic resolution V7-->I).

2) They can also be used to replace extended durations
   of the Tonic ( ex. 2 or 4 bars of the I chord)

3) The V(Dominant 7 = V7) or bII is usually
   the last chord of the turnaround.
