Lynne whaz going? I've always loved the way pianos sounded growing up. I always fooled around on my keyboard but never got learn. I have a pretty good idea of the sound so am not tone deaf. Anyways. I was wondering if you could please send a layout of the chords as they are laid out on the keys.

ANSWER

Hi, Casey--Unfortunately, I have no way of doing such a layout. If you will visit:

Absolutely Free Piano Lessons and go to the "Beginning Piano Lessons", you will be taught the names of the keys. From there you can figure out the chords.

Best Wishes,
Lynne
