Chord Averaging:

There is an alternative to picking the average or  "middle sounding" chord in 
a 1 - 4 - 5 progression. Think diminished sevenths. There are only three 
different ones in all keys. Try each or go back and forth. You can't go too 
wrong and it will probably sound closer to the real chord than the chord 
averaging method allows most of the time.
