Main Chord Sequence / Chord Names

---------------------------------

This is an example of a "James Bond" type pattern, featuring a "wandering

5th" (TM maguri).

Basically you take a minor chord, G minor in this case, and move the 5th up

chromatically

to an augmented 5th, then to a 6th, and back down again.

Here things are complicated a little by the presence of other tones in the

melody, the 2nd

and the 4th, but the essential notes are :

G Bb D > G Bb D# > G Bb E > G Bb D#

Now I have to rewrite my note because there was not a recognised name on UG

for a minor chord

with an augmented 5th, but now there is. So Gm+5 or Gm#5 will work for the

2nd/4th chord.

Alternatively reorder the notes - Eb G Bb - it's just an Eb major triad, so

it can also be

called Eb/G. In fact there is also a 'regular' 5th played by the piano so

that means the

augmented 5th would actually be a flat 6th. But Gm(b6) is not a recognised

chord name (yet).

G Bb D Eb can be Ebmaj7/G. Now I can use the simpler name for the chord, but

Gm+5 instead of Eb/G.

Piano arranged for guitar, this is not so easy but let it ring as much as you

stretch for x10-14-12-11x and x10-14-12-10x.
