Simple chord progression list with two chords


I-IV Common progression.


I-V Common progression


Chord progression list with three chords


I-IV-V Commonly used in rock and roll


I-II-IV Used by the Beatles in â Sgt Pepperâs Lonely Hearts Club Band


I-IV-V7 *V7 is a regular V chord with a minor third on the top. An example of a V7 would be G, B, D, F. You can learn more about sevenths at *How to use 7th Chords in Compositions.


I-flatted VII-IV Used in gospel music


I-flatted III-IV One of my favorite progressions, used by Lynyrd Skynyrd in âFree Birdâ


Chord progression list with four chords


I-IV-I-V Common progression


I-IV-I-V7 Common progression with dominant 7th chord in place of V chord


I-IV-V-IV Common progression with a rolling motion.


I-vi-IV-V Heart and Soul â Theme from the film Big with Tom Hanks. This chord progression is fun to play.


I-vi-ii-V Gershwin in âIâve Got Rhythmâ


I-V-vi-IV Used by Journey in âDonât Stop Believinâ. Another fun rolling progression.


IV-I-IV-V Chord progression not starting on the tonic!


I-I-IV-V Similar to the I-IV-V, but more this is more widely used because it is four measures long. Many musical phrases are divisible by 4, normally 16, which makes chord progression using four chords more popular than others.


vi-IV-I-V Currently a very popular chord progression used by The Offspring, Linkin Park, The Cranberries, OneRepublic, and others. Also used in our composition titled Medley of Waterfalls


Chord progressions list with five chords


I-vi-ii-IV-V7 Common Progression. Notice how the subsequent chord has many of the same notes. I and vi, ii and IV, both have two notes in common.


I-vi-ii-V7-ii Similar to the previous chord progression, but with a ii squeezed in between the V7 and the I. This added ii makes the progression less final at the end. V to I is a popular way to end songs. With the ii, it sounds like the song keeps going.


Chord progressions list with six chords


I-IV-I-V7-IV-I Blues and jazz is normally a 12âbar progression making this chord progression ideal for jazz tunes.


The numerous above chord progressions lists are ideal to use if youâre stuck at the keyboard and unsure where to begin. The above chord progressions are popular progression that have been around, but feel free to compose your own progressions. Who knows, maybe youâll compose the next popular progression.

Original Question

Guitar / Piano chords for D?
Q. I'm new to guitar, don't know how to put this. When I'm playing a song in D, what other chords are suitable to be played along side D? List each one of them please, especially the jazz chords!
I just picked up the guitar yesterday so the only ones I know for D are A & G haha so I appreciate the help. Thanks! :)

A. Hello there,

Here is a link to a chord progression generator. You can use it to find various combinations of chords. For instance, you want to play in D. You can check out the I 4 5 1 progression. You can hear how it sounds and see what the chords are. Since you are just starting, you may not know what the 1 4 5 1 means. You don't need to at this point. The numbers refer to the root note (1) in this case D, the 4th note up the scale and the 5th note up the scale. Don't get hung up on that aspect. You will pick up the theory in time. For now, use try select different progressions to see how they sound. If you like them, use them. A easy way to experiment on chord progressions without understanding music theory.

Also, here is a link to a chord chart. It is a pdf file and several pages long. Just down load the pdf file to your computer. Whenever you want to see what the fingering is for any chord, you can find it on the chart.

Original Question

Can someone please list some chord progressions that would make an excellent Christmas song?
Q. I'm looking for John Lennon's style but still recognizable as a Christmas song. Thanks.

A. Nope, composers and arrangers do that for a living, so unless you want to hire someone, that job is yours. (If you accept a progression from anyone, the piece you make will no longer be yours.)

If you do not yet have the trained ear, sit down at a piano, noodle around until you find something you like, and write it down. Then you have a basis to follow through.

I strongly advise you to have the lyrics first, as working lyrics after the fact of even just a chord progression is heinously difficult to pull off and have it sound good. (They may even help you 'find' the sound / harmony you want!)


Best regards.
