A pair of major and minor scales sharing the same key signature are said to be in a relative relationship. [1] [2] The relative minor of a particular major key, or the relative major of a minor key, is the key which has the same key signature but a different tonic. (This is as opposed to parallel minor or major, which shares the same tonic.)
The book has since been published in a case-size edition by William Bay, Mel's son and has spawned a series of similar books like the Encyclopedia of Guitar Chord Progressions (first published in 1977 [3]), Encyclopedia of Guitar Chord Inversions, Mel Bay's Deluxe Guitar Scale Book, Encyclopedia of Jazz Guitar Runs, Fills, Licks & Lines, and ...

An A-minor scale has the same pitches as the C major scale, because the C major and A minor keys are relative major and minor keys. A minor chord has the root and the fifth of the corresponding major chord, but its first interval is a minor third rather than a major third:
Similarly, in minor keys, chords from the parallel major may also be "borrowed". For example, in E minor, the diatonic chord built on the fourth scale degree is IVm, or A minor. However, in practice, many songs in E minor will use IV (A major), which is borrowed from the key of E major. Borrowing from the parallel major in a minor key, however ...
E minor is a minor scale based on E, consisting of the pitches E, F ♯, G, A, B, C, and D. Its key signature has one sharp, on the F. Its relative major is G major and its parallel major is E major. [1] The E natural minor scale is:

In the key of C major, these would be: D minor, E minor, F major, G major, A minor, and C minor. Despite being three sharps or flats away from the original key in the circle of fifths, parallel keys are also considered as closely related keys as the tonal center is the same, and this makes this key have an affinity with the original key.
