For the past couple weeks I’ve worked on a finger style solo of Skynyrd’s “The Ballad of Curtis Lowe”. My question- As written in multiple online chord/lyric pages, the tune is in the key of E Major and several lines end in a one-note transition from E to E7. Key of E works just fine and all other portions of the progression sound correct other than those E7s. Ideas or suggestions such as maybe It’s Emaj7 rather than Edom7?
