The key may be specified at the top of the written chord chart or given orally by the bandleader, record producer, or lead singer. In the key of C, the numbers would correspond as follows: It is also similar to roman numeral analysis however, the NNS instead uses Arabic numerals to represent each of the scale degrees. The Nashville Number System (also referred to as NNS) is similar to (movable-do) Solfège, which uses "Do Ré Mi Fa Sol La Ti" to represent the seven scale degrees of the Major scale. It has been around for about four hundred years, but sometime during the past fifty years, Nashville got the credit. It is an easy tool to use if you understand how music works. The Nashville Number System is a trick that musicians use to figure out chord progressions on the fly. The Nashville Number System was compiled and published in a book by Chas. It resembles the Roman numeral and figured bass systems traditionally used to transcribe a chord progression since the 1700s. It was developed by Neal Matthews in the late 1950s as a simplified system for the Jordanaires to use in the studio and further developed by Charlie McCoy.
