[quote=Noodler;161149]HB, I think what you are after is this. The major scale always goes:
Tone, tone, semitone, tone, tone, tone, semitone.

Each note of the major scale in a key has a chord related to it that uses notes only from that key. eg in C

C major - C,E,G
E minor- D,F, A
E minor - E,G,B
F Major - F, A, C
G Major -G, B, D
A Minor - A, C, E
B Dim - B, D, F (notice all chords notes of these chords are from the C major scale).

I think I see what you're saying, but if I'm understanding you correctly, in every note of the scale having a chord that goes with it in that key.......In your C scale above, where is the D chord? The D is certainly one of the notes of the C scale. What am I missing? Perhaps it has something to do with the E major and E minor both being in there?
