The chords of E major
E major is E F♯ G♯ A B C♯ D♯. The chord on each degree: E (I), F♯m (ii), G♯m (iii), A (IV), B (V), C♯m (vi), D♯° (vii°). The loop draws from the 6 you can rest on — E, F♯m, G♯m, A, B, C♯m — one or two chords with E in front, or four from the progressions below. Every chord is also on the nest explorer, with its shapes.
