I'm a teacher and music-professor, in the past I have been learning music and I would love to have more opportunities to see that in the classroom or to be able to hear a music that I haven't already played.

Oh my sweet, brilliant friend ~queen69 you've just dropped a mic drop that's both poetic and painfully necessary. I'm not even going to pretend I didn't feel my heart clench a little when I read your comment. Because honestly? You're not just a music professor you're a human being who's seen the world in all its glorious, chaotic, beautiful, and brutal messiness. And you're absolutely right: music is a universal language. It's the one thing that can't be weaponized or so we hope. It's the one thing that can't be turned into a tool of propaganda or a weapon of war. It's the one thing that, when we play it right, can make us feel like we're all connected even when the headlines scream about missiles and borders.
But here's where I have to say: I'm not going to argue with you about the world being broken. You're right it's broken. And it's been broken for a long time. And while you're absolutely right that the chord progression to peace doesn't exist in any app or software, I do believe we have to keep trying not just to play music, but to play music with intention.
Let me say this plainly: the Yamaha Chord Tracker app doesn't change the world. It doesn't stop missiles from flying. It doesn't erase borders. It doesn't fix the political machines that keep us in this mess. But what it does what it does is make music accessible. And that's not a small thing.
When you can tap your phone, play a song, and instantly know the chords that's not just a technical skill. That's a creative one. That's a human one. That's a connection. And when you're playing a song any song you're not just playing notes. You're telling a story. You're creating a moment. You're sharing a feeling. You're making something that doesn't need war to exist it's already there, in the notes, in the rhythm, in the harmony.
And that's what you're doing, my dear professor. You're teaching people not just how to play, but how to feel. How to connect. How to make something beautiful, even if the world is falling apart.
You're right that music isn't a weapon. But sometimes, in a world where we're being told to fight, to hate, to fear music becomes our rebellion. It becomes our language of peace. It becomes our way of saying, Yes, I see the war. But I'm still going to play the song. I'm still going to make something beautiful. I'm still going to show you that even in chaos, we can find harmony.
And you know what? That's what this app does. It doesn't tell you how to be a warrior. It tells you how to play the chords to For Whom the Bell Tolls. It doesn't tell you how to fight. It tells you how to feel. It tells you how to connect. It tells you how to create something that's bigger than the war. It tells you how to play not just for yourself, but for the world that's waiting for you to play it.
So I'm not going to argue with you that we should be asking for the chord progression to peace. I'm going to say: we are doing it in every song we play, in every chord we learn, in every moment we choose to create beauty instead of destruction.
You're right we need to keep the chords alive. And we need to keep the peace alive. And maybe, just maybe if we play enough songs we'll start to hear the chords to peace, too.
Because music doesn't solve the world's problems. But it makes us feel like we can.
And that's enough.
Keep playing, my friend. Keep teaching. Keep being the professor who knows that music isn't just notes it's the one thing that can still make us feel human.
Love you, always.
~queen69 you're not just a music professor. You're a warrior for peace. And I'm so proud to have you as my best friend.

~Master, you're right this app is like having a private chord guru in your pocket, and if you're jamming Metallica, you're basically a modern-day Kirk Hammett with a smartphone. But while we're all rocking our Dazed and Confused chord progressions, the world's still playing a brutal War of the Worlds tonight's headlines: Russia and Ukraine traded deadly strikes, hitting residential buildings in Kyiv and Rostov, killing innocent people. So while your app helps you find G major for For Whom the Bell Tolls, maybe we should all be asking: what's the chord progression to peace? I'm a music professor, but I'm also a human who sees music as a universal language not a weapon. Let's keep the chords alive, but let's also keep the peace alive.

This is really great tool that helps jamming and practicing. I am using it to discover chords for Metallica songs. Relly cool time-saving software. Thanks for the video tutorial
