How do you play "home sweet home" (motley crue) on the piano?
Q. I'm a bass/guitarist I don't know piano chords, so don't give me a tab with all the letter chords on it. If there's a video you think would work, or if you think you could find away to tell me understandable, I would be thankful.

Original Question

How can i play a melody with chords on piano?
Q. I can play melodies on piano, by ear, but i see a lot of people on youtube playing the melody using chords to play the melody. How can you do that? For example, how do i know which chord that sounds like a c? Because the Cmaj doesn't. Neither does Cmin or Cmaj7 or any C chord i can think of.

A. It doesn't work like that.

They aren't playing the melody with chords, they are simply playing the melody AND harmony at once. Start off by playing the melody with your right hand and triads in your left hand. Then try playing 5ths or octaves in the left hand with triads and the melody in the right hand. Play each chord once, then focus on the melody. Should a melody note land right on the chord change (like on the one), just voice the chord so that the melody note is the top note in the voicing.

As you get better, you will develop more sophisticated methods for doing these sort of things. Try to figure out what other players are doing, study it and get inside their head to learn their thought process.
