For the One Six Two Five, since the chords change quickly, prioritize playing the root followed by a strong note leading to the next chord. Slightly more advanced, but equally as common, is the One Six Two Five: F7, D minor, G7, C7. “Walking Blues” uses the most simple turnaround variation: a Five One progression: C7, F7. The turnaround is a common way to end most blues and jazz songs that indicate that the chord progression, or form, is about to repeat again. Measures 11 and 12 are what is known as the turnaround. Measure 2 has the note sequence G, Gb with the purpose to smoothly walk down to the root note of the F7 chord, F. These can also be called passing tones (PT) or approach notes (AN). These can be chromatic or diatonic and they can be one note or many. These are great tools to incorporate that help you change from the chord you're on to the one you're going to in a smooth and predictable manner. The examples below are from the song “Walking Blues” which is found on the School of Rock Method App.
