Key Signatures

Keys or Key Signatures: When a song (or any music) is built mostly on the notes of any particular scale, there is usually a KEY SIGNATURE at the beginning of the staff, right after the clef sign. It is a group of sharps or flats that are placed on the lines and spaces of the staff. It identifies which notes will be sharp or flat.

Minor Keys & Relative Minors

• All MAJOR KEYS have related RELATIVE MINOR KEYS and share a
  common signature.
• The 6th step of a MAJOR SCALE is the starting note of it's
  RELATIVE MINOR SCALE.

For example, the C major scale is:

C - D - E - F - G - A - B -C

The 6th step is A, so the RELATIVE MINOR of C MAJOR is A MINOR:

A - B - C - D - E - F - G - A

The key of C major has no sharps or flats, same with Am.

Each key, and the order in which the sharps or flats appear, is very closely related to, and based on the Circle of 5ths.
