Piano Music with the wrong chords

I have just opened a new piano music book and found so
many errors with wrong chords. Be careful, so many times
the chord markings are diminished chords or from a wrong key,
and will be very confusing.

It's so much easier to change the chords and then you can arrange
your music correctly. This is why every piano player needs to learn
the basics that is taught in our Intermediate Chord Book at
Musicandyou.com. This book is the basics of all piano music, and it is
really easy learn.

Here is the link to our Chord Book.

A huge problem is the diminished chords. Usually when you see a diminished
chord is should be a V7 chord with a 9-.

Example:
If you see a G dim, Bb dim or Db dim, it's probably A7 with 9- (9 lowered)

How can you tell? All you need to know is the key the song is written in, look at
the chord and see if it fits the key.
If it doesn't fit the key, it is usually a V7 chord.

Rule: Any chord can be preceded by its' V7 chord. So if you are in the key of G,
and there is a G dim chord, it is actually A7.

Key of G: D7 is the V chord on G scale, A7 can precede the D7 chord.

Do not make this complicated, just know the key the song is using and go from there.

Can you add V7 chords to your piano music?
