| Chord | A chord is a written representation of a set of musical notes. When written in text format (as opposed to musical notation, or sheet music), a chord usually looks like these examples: A, Bm, C7, Dsus, Eb, F#, Gdim. A chord can also indicate its "voicing" by showing which notes should be played by bass instruments or the left hand on a piano, like this: A/E, Cm/Eb, G7/D.

| Transpose | To transpose (the process of "transposition") is the process of changing the root key of a song to a different chord (also known as "modulating" when it is done in the middle of playing a song).
