Diatonic
Chords
in
the
key
of
G
Major
The
definition
of
Diatonic
is
in
the
key
of.
For
example
in
the
key
of
G
Major,
the
following
notes
are
diatonic
because
they
are
part
of
the
scale:
A
note
other
than
the
notes
in
the
G
Major
scale
is
considered
not
diatonic
to
the
key
of
G
Major.
To
identify
whether
a
chord
is
diatonic
to
a
certain
key
or
not,
you
must
identify
whether
each
of
the
notes
that
make
up
that
chord
are
diatonic.
Here
are
the
diatonic
triads
in
the
key
of
G
Major:
Notice
that
all
of
the
notes
in
each
chord
are
diatonic
to
the
key
of
G
Major,
which
means
that
all
of
the
chords
are
also
diatonic.
The
pattern
of
major
and
minor
triads
in
a
major
scale
is
always
the
same:
I
II-
III-
IV
V
VI-
VII-
When
you
add
7ths
to
each
of
the
chords,
you
get
the
following:
Notice
that
all
of
the
notes
in
each
chord
are
diatonic
to
the
key
of
G
Major,
which
means
that
all
of
the
chords
are
also
diatonic.
The
pattern
of
7th
chords
in
a
major
scale
is
always
the
same:

Tritone
A
tritone
interval
is
one
half
step
smaller
than
a
Perfect
5th
and
one
half
step
larger
than
a
Perfect
4th.
The
triton
is
comprised
of
3
whole
steps
and
it
cuts
the
octave
in
half.
Below
are
a
few
examples
of
tritones:

G to Db
E to Bb

Half
Diminished/Minor7b5
Chords
Adding
the
flat
7th
interval
to
a
minor
triad
will
produce
a
minor7b5
chord.
The
minor7b5
chord
is
built
by
stacking
minor
3rds
on
top
of
one
another:
A
Minor
3rd
between
the
root
and
the
3rd
A
Minor
3rd
between
the
3rd
and
the
5th
A
Minor
3rd
between
the
5th
and
the
7th
For
example,
when
we
add
an
E
to
an
F#
minor
triad,
we
get
an
F#-7b5
(the
diatonic
VII
chord
in
the
key
of
G
Major).
