Teoria Musical - Acordes (Para Piano)
V chords often have a 7. In the key of D, the V chord is A, so you would see A7 appearing in the music. Here it is.
The A7 chord
Two very useful altered chords are the iv chord (notice we switched from IV to iv... from major to minor), and the iim7b5 (pronounced "two minor seven flat five"). In the key of D the IV chord is G, so the iv chord is G minor.
G minor - Gm
(A word about names - Some of the green chords are written as slash chords, like Am/F#. This chord could also be written F#m7b5. In general, whenever you take a simple minor chord and move the bass from the root down three half steps, you get a m7b5 on the new bass note. Sometimes calling it Am/F# is easier for me.)
