Home

Songs in A minor usually end on A, on a Am chord. E7 is the chord that pulls back home.

Its cousin

C major uses the same notes, starting somewhere else.

A minor uses the same white keys as C major but starts on A, so it sounds darker. Its chords, Am, Dm and E, are some of the easiest on a ukulele (Am is one finger). A song in a minor key sounds sad, spooky or stormy.
