What does it mean when a Guitar/Piano chord has a number after it? e.g A2 D5 (i don't mean Aadd5, i know that)?

Q. e.g A2 D5 (i don't mean Aadd5, i know about that)

A. Hmm. Interesting question.

Well, you could be referring to a single note, and the octave. C4 is middle C, for example. If not, then you may have incorrectly voiced the question. Most chords use the 1st, 3rd and 5th degrees of the scale, so "A5" or "add5" don't exist. But if it's "C7" that means add the 7th degree, "D9" means the 7th and the 9th, etc. etc.

The number after the chord tells you which degree of the scale to add to the chord. However, if it is a number and only a number, it means add that note and the one(s) before it. So D11 means add the 7th, the 9th and the 11th.

I've probably got this all wrong, but hopefully I've helped.

Original Question

Need help transposing guitar notation to piano chords?
Q. I have started to play keyboard with a group. The music score has only guitar notations. I have found what each of the chords relate to on the piano except for "X"2 ("X" = note, like A or G) (For example: A2 or C2)
It's probably really easy like a second inversion triad / 6/4 chord where the fifth of the triad is the bass and the root and the third are above. But when they played it sounded as though it was a resolve or chord progression.

A. Anvil Studio is an excellent (and free) staff-ware music writing program. You can enter notes on screen with a standard piano keyboard or a guitar neck. You can enter the guitar tablature string an frets, and the notes will appear on the staff.
