Your question is a bit unclear to me.

I'm wondering whether you're desiring chord progressions or hoping that someone will spell out a variety of chords that are somehow conjoined to the key of C Major.

Well, although the answers to either or those questions are actually infinite, I will attempt to provide you with some sort of a solution.

There are what we call "diatonic triads" for a given key. There are seven available for both a natural minor or a major mode/scale.

To determine these chords (I'm assuming you have a rudimentary understanding of music theory) begin by writing out the C major scale (for example). Then, without adding accidentals (or rather, by adding any accidentals required by the key signature - which in this case would be none), first write a scale an arbitrary third directly above the first scale, and then write a scale a perfect fifth directly above the first scale.

You will have created triads (three-note chords) above each note of the C major scale. Those are what we call the diatonic triads.

If you play piano you can find the same chords by simply observing the key signature of the desired tonality and being certain that your hand is exactly a p5 wide. Just insert the middle-note (the third) according to the key signature.

BTW to determine the chord type you need to know the difference between a major, minor and diminished chord.

You can determine this difference by listening or by observing the following interval patterns:

Major: 4st - 3st (that's 3st over 4st on paper and 4st followed by 3st on the keyboard - and by "st" I mean to say semi-tone) or (M3 - m3)
Minor: 3st - 4st (m3 - M3)
Diminished: 3st - 3st (m3 - m3)

This is where I'm going to stop - I'm starting to confuse myself. Just message me if you'd like more musical instruction - or visit my blog or ... ask another q. haha

**I definitely think there's something wrong with what I just told you; the problem will likely occur on the second and seventh degrees of a minor scale... I'm too tired to sort it out right now ... will do later :D

For awhile whilst i exchange right into a baby I ate peanut butter and miracle whip sandwiches. Or i could in basic terms arise in the midst of the evening and consume the miracle whip suitable out of the jar. My mom could consume peanut butter and bologna sandwiches. whilst people hear that they think of i'm gross

using natural minor only you would have c major, d minor, e minor, f major, g dominant, a minor, and b diminished. (these are for the triads, and as you may/may not know these are constructed by stacking thirds. for example: AbCdEf(G) = a minor(7th).
i dunno if this directly answers your question; feel free to email.
