   • Changing the order of the top notes of the chord does not make any difference to the name of the chord, but changing the lowest note in the chord changes the chord into an inverted chord.

   Chord inversions are really easy to understand! Think of a triad – it has 3 notes. The bottom note is called the root note, the middle note is called the 3rd and the top note is called the 5th. If you play a triad with the notes in this order then it is in Root Position.
