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

Original Question

how do you learn piano chords by yourself?
Q. i quit my lessons before i finished grade 3. and how do i learn to play by ear?

and and and, how long does it take to learn guitar by using a book? a year?

A. Piano chords are very easy to learn. They are patterns that are not that difficult. Know which ones are which takes time. It can be easy to hear the difference between major and minor, but may take time to recognize diminished 7th and such.

I suggest that you go back to taking lessons. I would also suggest that you take guitar lessons as well. Chords on the guitar are a little tricky to pick out by accident. Lessons are usually fair priced.

How long does it take to learn the guitar? Well, a good instructor can have you playing a song in minutes. There is a very simple song that uses E A and D using half chords that can be learned in minutes. To become good at the guitar takes years.

Original Question

what is a piano chord ????
Q. what is a piano chord and why do you need to learn it

A. A chord is multiple notes sounding (or being played) together. Chords built in thirds are collectively referred to as tertian harmony.

A major chord is built by taking a major third (e.x. C and E) and placing a minor third (E to G) on top. A major third is always made up of two notes 4 half steps apart (C to C# to D to D# to E is four half steps). A minor third is always 3 half steps apart (E to F to F# to G is three 1/2 steps).

A minor chord is built by taking a minor third (like G an Bb) and placing a major third on top (Bb to D).

An easy way to find the parallel minor chord from a major chord is to simply lower the middle tone a half step.

By raising the top note by a half step on a major chord, (thus you have a major third stacked onto another major third) you come up with an augmented triad.

If you lower the top note of a minor triad you have two minor thirds on top of each other, and this is a diminished triad.

This is just some of the basics of chord structure... there's a LOT more.

It's important to understand chord structure because that's what almost all instrumental and choral music from Bach on up (until the 20th century and 12-tone series and stuff) is based on. Chord structure and progressions are absolutely necessary in the analysis of music.
