Are chords on the keyboard added to a song the same way guitar chords are?

Q. I know how to add guitar chords to a melody. But I want start adding keyboard/piano chords to songs as well. Is it done the same as guitar?

I tried to word this as simple and easy to understand as possible. Sorry if it's hard to understand and thank you for answering. =)

A. Pretty much. They're both C instruments and share a lot of qualities. If you have 0 piano experience, start by figuring out the notes on the guitar and transferring them to the piano. You'll be able to see triads, 7 chords, and anything else a little more easily (hopefully! it took me a little time).

Original Question

What the piano chords to Better that we break by maroon 5?
Q. Just need to piano chords! thanks :) 10 points!

A. Chords are chords regardless of the instrument. For that reason, it can be helpful to look at guitar sites because they're so popular.

Check out the link. You get to see the chord names over the lyrics. You just need to know how to play the chords on piano, that's all. (Hopefully you've got a good understanding of triads and inversions).

Original Question

How can I learn to memorize my piano chords for my music faster?
Q. At my school they have a program called Winter Drumline and it's like a drumline show whenever marching season is over, the pit and the battery are in it. I am in the pit for winter drumline this year and I am playing the synth (electric piano). I am new to playing piano and I am not used to treble clef, I play trombone and baritone so I am more familiar with the bass clef, although I can read treble, it takes me a minute. So the chords I have to play are kind of difficult, especially for someone learning to play. How can I learn these chords faster so I can learn the show faster? Please help and thanks in advance :)

A. Hey Good for you! I was in Winter drum line to0. I marched snare, and now I am a Jazz Piano major. A good way to memorize chords is to take one measure at a time very slowly. Ms=Measure
Example:

-Memorize Ms1.
-Memorize Ms2.
-Play Ms1&2 very slowly until you have that memorized.
-Memorize Ms3
-Play Ms1-3 very slowly unitl memorized
-Memorize Ms4.
-Play Mes1-4

Bump up the metronome 5 clicks and repeat for awhile.

Then do the same thing for measures 5-8
and then play measures 1-8 very slowly.
And continue learning the rest of the show like that.

That method is to learn specific chords that are written out like you said on a treble clef. But You should start to read chord charts too and chord symbols, so when you see a C-7 chord you know to C-Eb-G-Bb or when you see a G7 chord you know to play G-B-D-F.

If you don't know what 7 chords are, start to learn ALL your major and minor triad chords.
C=C-E-G
Db=Db-F-Ab
D=D-F#-A
etc.....

and then the next step would be to learn those major and minor triads in different 1st and second inversion, meaning the middle or last note is on the bottom.

First inversion chords:
C=E-G-C
Db=F-Ab-Db
D=F#-A-D
etc..

Second inversion chords:
C=G-C-E
Db=Ab-Db-F
D=A-D-F#
etc...


Piano is one of the most technical instruments to play because not only do you have to consider rhythm and harmony but also melody.

If your really interested in piano see if you can find a teacher that teaches both Jazz, and classical.
If your in the Detroit area I give lessons!

Good luck sorry for the rant!
