Need help to understand. Playing blues on a harmonica key of C, 2nd position is G. I get that, but if I start a song on draw 1, the note is D. Is the song in the in D or G? My understanding is holes 1 to 6 is G on a C harmonica. Then 3rd position starts on draw 4, but if I start on draw 5 am I in a different scale or key?
Maybe these answers will help me make a big step in learning. I still do not get the I IV V. I know what is saying for a guitar, but not so with the harmonica.
Some people say "have the right key & play what you feel" I know I need to understand more about this. I have no music theory background.
Thanks for any help. Tony Stephens
