The scale degrees of the key. Roman numerals are the standard way of denoting chords, it's a useful form of notation as it isn't tied to any particular key. I is the chord of the tonic (first) note of the key's scale, IV chord of the fourth note in the scale, etc. If this doesn't make sense then no worries, read up on a bit of music theoryshubelo wrote:Ok, just not sure what you mean byWhat do the roman numbers correlate with, with what keys?

Yeah, there are umpteen methods for working out the key of a track, if you have been at music a long time, chords, scales become recognisable very quickly upon listening, you can usually just play a sustained single note to determine the root, you can then play a minor3rd or a major 3rd to see which harmonizes. After determining if the key is major or minor, it's very easy to then find the other notes and available diatonic chords from that. No need to have knowledge of anything, as long as your not deaf..........
