I am learning the C Major scale, both in single notes and chords. As you know, the C major scale is C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C. What I've done is to get a list of chords which are from the set of 'correct' ones for this scale. These Chords are : CM, Dm, Em, FM, G6, Am, Bm7b5, Cadd9. With M=Major and m=minor. I chose these chords as they are easier to play than some of the other 'correct' chords. The info I'm using is in 'Progressive guitar chords' by Gary Turner and Brenton White. on page 153 they give a table of chords that can be substituted :
For Major chords you can use : M6, M6/9, Madd9, Maj7, Maj9, Maj11, Maj13, Maj7#9, sus (which is 'suspended' and has the 1, 4, 5 notes instead of 1,3,5).
For minor chords you can use : m6, m7, m6/9, m9, m11, m13, minor(Major7), m7b5, m9b5.
Generally speaking, if the song is in C major, then the rhythm will be using chords in the C Major scale, so all you do is use notes of the C Major scale. You'll have to decide what notes of the C Major scale to play during your lead. This will depend on where you want to go with your lead/solos, and on what chords the rhythm player is using at the time that you want to play any particular notes.

I'm not convinced your tone was completely necassary.
