_ Okay, [Ebm] that's the major, minor, [B] major again, church.
The five chord in the circle of fourths, if you don't know the [Bb] circle of fourths and you don't follow [Ab] this, look up the circle of fourths in D flat.
A flat, [Ebm] F sharp, [B] B flat, B, E flat.
Church [Db] say, drop the thumb when you go to the one chord, [Gb] Amen.

A, [Bb] which is the F sharp, [G] nine sharp, nine, but here it's E flat [A] diminished.

Now our two chord, [Db] remember our two in [Eb] circle of fourths?
[Db] When you go from six [Cm] to two.
[Db] _ We're going to [B] make it a little more [C] traditional.
