jor chord key depressed and press
any other accompaniment key-
board key located to the right of the
major chord key.

press any other two
accompaniment keyboard keys
located to the right of the major
chord key.

See the “Fingered Chord Chart” on page A-4 for details on
playing chords with other roots.
*1:Inverted fingerings cannot be used. The lowest note is the
root.
*2:
The same chord can be played without pressing the 5th G.
NOTE
•Except for the chords specified in note*1 above, inverted
fingerings (i.e. playing E-G-C or G-C-E instead of C-E-
G) will produce the same chords as the standard
fingering.
•Except for the exception specified in note*2 above, all of
the keys that make up a chord must be pressed. Failure
to press even a single key will not play the desired
FINGERED chord.
