A. Ok this is in no way going to teach you how to play piano, but a basic understanding of music theory would help a lot. Chords are structured based on scales and keys yadah yadah. the letters (i.e. A B C D) are root notes to the chords. Now for the symbols. b=flat so Ab= A flat major chord. It's major because is has nothing denoting it's not. anything with a little m next to it is minor. That means that rather than playing the chord major, you drop the third note in the chord down a half step. The 7 means you add in the 7th note in the scale to that chord. # is the opposite of flat. It means sharp, so c# is a C sharp chord. Verse chorus and bridge are self-explanitory. Chords are generally 3-5 notes on average played together. So the first chord on there the Ab chord is an A flat major chord. your root note is Ab, and the other two notes you play are C and Eb I believe. If you don't know the notes on a piano, you need to buy a book. If this makes sense, it should be easier to figure out now. Another note. A major chord consists generally of three or four notes. Your root note, the next note is 4 half steps above that, and the next note is 3 half steps above that.
A minor chord has the root note, the next note is three half steps above that, and the last note is 5 half steps above that. I'm certainly not saying "this is how you play piano". I play, and it's not something you can just pick up and learn, but this should give you somewhat of a better understanding of how to read these charts. If you go out and spend like ten bucks at a local music store, you can get a music theory book that will explain all of this in great detail. btw what song is this?
Hope this helps and good luck.
How do you read piano chords?
Q. I want to learn how to play a song but I don't know how to read what it means. Here's what it has.
Verse: Eb Bb Ab . Eb Bb/D Cm Ab x4
Bridge: Fm Eb/G Ab Bb x3 Ab Eb/G Bb x2
Chorus: Eb Gm Cm Ab Eb Bbsus4/D Cm Ab
Eb Gm Cm Ab Eb Bbsus4 Cm Ab
Eb (link: Bb Abadd9 . Eb Bb/D Cm Ab)
I looked up each chord but they have so many different ones like major, major 7th, minor, and minor 7th. Idk which one it is. Please help, thanks!
A. If it's just a single note name, like C, Eb, G, or F#, then it's a major chord.

Piano chords?
Q. Where can I find the piano tabs/chords for Black Eyed Peas - So real....the peace in the end of 'humps'?
A. piano music is not printed in tablature, it uses the grand staff. In order to learn how to play the piano you eventually will need to learn how to read music. If you know how to play chords on the piano it is possible to play the basic progression of a song from the guitar chords but to really learn the part correctly you need to read music
