If you have chosen to teach yourself how to play the piano at home instead of going to a private piano instructor then you may most definitely have got a home learning course online or a piano learning DVD.

Piano chord basics are all that's needed at this early stage and piano chords are essentially really simple to play. The simplest piano chord consists of only three notes. Also, in its most straightforward form the base or first of these 3 notes is the note of the name of the chord itself. This implies that for a C chord, the note at the bottom will be C itself.

The subsequent notes are very straightforward also... Simply go up two and then two once again. This means that from the root of C for example, you move up 2 notes to the E and then two more up to the G. Thus the notes of the C chord are C, E, G.

When you start to play other chords it might become a little more complex due to the flats and sharps. In the key of D as an example the F is usually played as F sharp so that the chord of D is, D F sharp A. The pattern of this basic chord however will remain the same. The bass of the chord then move up 2 and up two again.,, as straightforward as that.
