Let's say I am writing a song in C major and I borrow a chord from the parallel minor, C minor. Let's say I borrow F minor, which contains a flat. When I am writing the melody part over the F minor chord, can I use Ab in the melody or would that be considered out of key? In most cases, should the melody stick with the white notes even over chords that may have flats/sharps?
