notes over chords

over
- play the 1 note over (at the same time as) the 1 chord, then over the 4 chord, then over the 5 chord
- notice how different the note sounds when you change the chord under it

- a pink scarf or tie looks different depending on what other colors you're wearing
- when you play the 7 notes one at a time over a chord, some notes sound calm and some sound tense
- when you change the chord, a note that sounded calm may now sound tense
