If youre looking for 'ø7' a suffix Ive never seen representing a half-diminished chord, youll need to construct that one yourself. So a blues in Am would read VI II VI III II VI = Am Dm Am Em Dm Am.Ī blues in C would read: I IV I V IV I = C F C G F C. In the default Finale Mac 2004 document, 'm7(b5)' is chord suffix 20, while 'ø' is 64 see the attached example. I is always the major chord, II is always minor etc. When I wrote The Guitar Conspiracy I simplified all this into: There are a lot of theories on how to use roman numerals. So you could see this progression written many ways referenced from C Major, and they ALL mean the same thing: If you see a "-" after a numeral, like II-, I-, V-7b5, etc.the "-" also means Minor.Īs well, remember any Upper-case numeral that DOESN'T have a "-" or "m" after it is always assumed a Major Chord. (Personally, I stay away from using it except in certain situations, unfortunately others don't.) Although, in text and for describing any extensions or alterations, lower case can be confusing. If you see ANY Roman Numeral written as a lower-case letter, like ii, iii, etc., this also means "Minor". If you see any Roman Numeral followed by lower case "m", like IIm, IIIm, bVIIm, etc.the "m" means "Minor".

I'm guessing Roman numerals are preferred because, unlike regular numerals (e.g., 1, 2, 3.), they allow for the distinction between upper and lower case numerals. I don't know how a Roman Numeral chart would refer to that! Jazz players talk about that as simply a ii-V-I to Gb. A tune like Joy Spring starts in F, but them modulates to Gb/F#. Rogerzell: You are right that I've not seen a Roman Numeral chart that accounts for modulations, which is why it's very hard to write a good lead sheet in Roman Numerals. While this could be written with any kind of numbers, Roman numerals are the tradition, for reasons I don't know. He'll know exactly what chords to accompany me with. But the jazz theory explanation for this progression is ii-V-I, which is one of the fundamental concepts for jazz improvisation.Īs an example, if a band asks me to play an intro and I want the bass player to join, and he knows the key, I'll say: I'm playing a iii VI ii V I. You may see in a standard G-7, C7 and Fmaj7 and can play those chords.
