Original Question

Give me a basis or chords to write a minor piano song?
Q. Okay, so, its Christmas soon and I wanna write my bf a short song on piano. I really don't know how to start or how to write a good melody line or anything!! >.<
Can someone pleaseee give me some tips or a few minor-ish chords that will go together?
Thanks a bunch ^-^

A. A minor is probably easiest on piano.

A minor, D minor, E minor OR E7.

A minor is made up of A,C,E notes.
D minor is D,F,A.
E minor is E,G,B... though you could use the E7 to resolve more strongly back to A minor.
E7 is made of E, G#, B, D... working very strongly with the G# as the lowest note.

You might want to end the song with an A major chord, too: A, C#, E.
The "Picardy third" effect is a nice touch.

Original Question

I need help with G minor piano chords?
Q. One of the well known chords in G minor with the piano is GM, E flat, B flat, F. I want the chord to go down again after the B flat instead of up, what chord do I use?


I don't actually play the piano but I know what the chord would sound like, so as you can imagine it would be very hard for me to work out. This is for a composition I am making


Thanks, please note all possible chords that would go down after that!
I'm playing in G minor which isn't jazzy lol, but thanks :)

A. I don't know what you're trying to sound like, but here are some jazzy/gospel sounding chords.

Key: Left Hand / Right Hand

â I would use an Am 7 #5 after the Bb back to the Gm.

Am 7 #5: G-D-F / G-C-F

â Also after the Bb, I would use an A half dim 7 chord back to the G.

LH: A-C# / RH: F#-A-C-Eb

â Or a ii-V-i back to Gm from the Bb.

Am7 b5 â D #5#9 â Gm

Am7 b5: A-C# / G-C-Eb

D #5#9: D-A-C / F#-Bb-C-F

I hope this helps.
