What guitar chords follow good after the chord e?

It depends on what the chord progression is. Just about any chord will work depending on what the melody sounds like or what chord progression is.


What do chords create?

Each Chord is made up of at least 3 different notes. At the most basic level a chord progression simply provides the background for the melody. the order in which the chords are utilized usually function to lead the listeners ear to the next chord, musical phrase, or melodic idea. Chords also provide the "Mood" of the music. a chord progression with a minor tonality will make the piece sound "sad" "unstable" or "unresolved". a progression with a major tonality will make the piece sound "happy" "stable" or "resolved". the structure of the chords may also dictate the complexity of the music to the listener and player. some chord progressions/structures are simplistic, and easy to hear and comprehend. for example this is most often heard in mainstream pop music. Some progressions/structures are more complex and not easily understood. In Jazz for example many progressions/chord structures sound strange or even wrong to the inexperienced listener. Depending on the order a piece was written (in this case melody first, than chord progression) the chords normally include the notes that the melody is emphasizing at the moment (but not always). What chords create can be thought of as the musical landscape that a melody functions in.


Why can you use a B minor chord as the last chord in a progression in the key of F sharp major?

What provides melody?

To explain this, I must say that there are generally two ways that a piece is composed; A. The piece is composed based on chord progressions, and the melody is put to that. The second option is B. The melody is composed first with the other parts being composed around the melody according to the chord progression. So if you have something in mind, then the melody has already been provided by your mind. If you're starting with chords, then you can just fiddle around until you find something you like.

How can someone find a chord progression corresponding exactly to an arbitrary melody line?

That's not always possible. In general, within each measure, you look at the notes of the melody that are on the beat or accented; you also look at the intervals between notes (particularly looking for thirds, fourths or fifths) that might give a clue to the chord that would best fit. Also, you have to look at whole phrases, to see how the chord progression is likely to resolve. It's helpful to be familiar with the most common chord progression patterns, to be able to make a guess how the tune might be constructed. Even so, it may not be possible to be exact, for two reasons. First, the melody line may not provide enough information to determine each chord. Second, there can always be legitimate chord substitutions, where one chord can function just as well as another. Many people who "fake it" simply use fragments of common progressions and adjust them until they fit. That works for a while, until you discover that the tunes they play all begin to sound alike after a while.
