How do I convert or change piano chords to bass guitar chords or tabs?

Q. Usually when I try to find gospel bass tabs or chords, I'm sent to sites that only have piano chords. Someone said that I could get the chords for the bass from the piano chords.

A. Typically the bass plays the same chords that the piano is playing, as both are concert C instruments. So an A chord on the piano is an A chord on the bass. Of course this is assuming you have the chords written above each measure. If this is the case, have the bassist improvise a line based on the chords. It's easy. If the chords are not written, you'll have to figure them out from the key of the piece and the melody written.

Original Question

What are some upbeat and happy chords for the piano?
Q. My friend and I are trying to compose a song and can't find any good chords. Preferably in the key of C.

A. The major chords are generally considered "upbeat", but it depends on how you use them. But something tells me if you have to ask online for "some upbeat and happy chords", you probably don't have a solid enough foundation in music to start composing yet.

Common major chords in C major:

C Major: C E G
F Major: F A C
G Major: G B D

bonus:
G7: G B D F

I suggest studying music theory and some common chord progressions.

Original Question

Piano chords to go with alto sax piece?
Q. I'm playing colours of the wind on alto sax in the C Major key... I need three piano chords that i can play to accompany this, but I need help.

A. Here are the chords for "Colors Of The Wind" by Vaness Williams:
http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/v/vanessa_williams/colors_of_the_wind_crd.htm

As key for piano or guitar here is shown the key C major:
C, Am, C, Em, Am, F, Dm, G, Am.

If you play that correct chords for piano, the alto sax has to play the melody chords:
A, F#m, A, C#m, F#m, D, Bm, E, F#m.

If you play the melody on alto sax in the key of C major, the piano has to play the chords:
Eb, Cm, Eb, Gm, Cm, Ab, Fm, Bb, Cm.

Cheers ebs
