Chords & Midis for Who Would Imagine a King
by Lisa (The Keynote)
The midi that says CHORDS, I played the melody up high on the keyboard just so you would know where I
am. Then, I played the chords, just striking them (no fill-ins or rolling notes) so you could look at it on Power
Tracks and see the keys too. The other one that says SOLO is just me playing as a solo piano piece (not
accompaniment...that would be more like the CHORDS version, except with a little rolling and filling in.)

C = Chord Symbol
C\G = C chord, G bass note

The Intro is in C and in ¾ time.

Now, I leave all of that outlol. I just vamp F, Bb\F, F till I'm ready to start singing (I sing it in C though)
The song is in F. So, after the introduction, the song changes to the key of F. Notice that last Bb\Cthe "C" is
really the V chord of the key your going to which is F. V usually leads to the I chord. ; -)
This is how I do lead sheets or "cheat" sheets. The chord is over the top of the words, the melody note is in
lower-case underneath the words.
