Although I have been singing and in music all of my life, my mother wasn't able to afford to continue getting me the piano lessons that I needed. I still was able to mature in song writing (lyrics) and vocal but my keyboard skills fell by the wayside. I find myself at a disadvantage in my writing because I have not choice but to send my lyrics away to get music (which i dont mind) however, i am looking for some help in learning some basic chord theory. So i can get an Idea of what I want when composing even before sending it out to my musician friend. I want to be a better a player but since, finances still won't allow me to get appropriate lessons and i find the tutorials still a bit over my head. I need the basics, someone point me in a good direction please.
