This document presents a chart that illustrates the notes of the major scales and their corresponding modes. The chart shows the spellings of the notes for each scale and mode using scale degrees and accidentals. It also includes two additional charts that list the diatonic triads and seventh chords that can be built from each scale degree in the major keys.

The “Ws” and “½s” across the top represent the intervals between each of the notes—whole steps and half steps. The Roman numerals represent the degrees of the scales. Directly above the Roman numerals are the names of the modes. The two charts at the bottom show the chord qualities (major, minor, diminished, etc.) that result from building chords on each of the scale degrees. This is called "diatonic harmony".
