Topic: Suggested Chords For A Couplet Rhyme Scheme

AA,,BB, CC = couplets, according to the rhyming dictionary

Since I don't trust my voice (had to stop voice lessons) is there a site I can go to that features chord progression suggestions for tunes written in couplets?

Thanks

Bill

Re: Suggested Chords For A Couplet Rhyme Scheme

I don't think so. I think the chord progression would be more a function of the melody, not the rhyming scheme.

If you want to be cute you can try matching the melody (and chords) to the rhyming scheme itself:

A, A, Bm, Bm, Cm, Cm.

Sorry, of course you're right, my friend. I meant the melody which rhymes like a couplet. I guess I could check the song list and see what's there, right, BGD?

Thanks

Batting "zero" today, looks like.

Not a good day all the way around for "The German Boy", but that's what tomorrows are for, right, friends? smile smile smile
