 Tonality and Harmony: Chord Types
An extended tertian chord, however, is often built on scale degree 5 to function as a dominant; 9th and 11th chords may be built on scale degree 2 and serve as a subdominant chord.
Pre-Dominant Chords: are chords that precede the dominant (or sometimes the tonic six-four and then the dominant) in a cadence.
Borrowed chords are also referred to as "mode mixture." 19th-century composers often used borrowed chords to expand harmonic color and to modulate to distantly related keys, especially the chromatically 3rd related keys.

You could also include the 9th in an 11th chord, or the 9th and 11th in a 13th chord, but on a guitar this is usually not done.
If a chord is written as something like C/G then it simply means that you play the chord given by the first letter, with the bass note given by the second letter - in this example, we have C major with a G bass note.
The difference between this one and a 'normal' diminished is that the 7th of the chord is a flat 7th not a double flat 7th (hence half-diminished).

 Chord Naming
Note that the chords change in a regular pattern, such as once per measure or every two beats (this is called harmonic rhythm), but the voicings and inversions can vary arbitrarily throughout the period of the chord as the performers desire.
The true augmented chord is a very colourful chord which is not often used.
In many forms of music, the only chord types ever used are triads (i.e., the first three degrees of a chord), so it is possible to specify nothing more than major or minor.

STRUMMIN' The main draw of the Q Chord was the Strumplate, which spans four octaves and is played by stroking with the tip of the fingers.
Auto Chord provides basic comping, Chord Hold sustains the chord, Chord Plus adds incidental auto-accompaniment parts, Manual Chord triggers a consistent chord without any other audible accompaniment (some accompaniment MIDI data is still sent), and Bass Control adds the appropriate patch and bass line.
Strangely, the Q Chord regularly sends MSB, LSB, and Pitch Bend value 64 (the middle, "neutral" position on a pitch wheel) messages on all accompaniment channels, even those that are supposed to be turned off.

 Steely Dan - The Mu Major Chord
The chord, or rather the name mu major, was invented by Donald Fagen and Walter Becker, quite possibly while sitting at the piano working on their early demos in the late 60s/early 70s.
However, the chord is used not only in Steely Dan songs but in songs by many different artists, although others would probably know the chord by a different name.
So the chord itself is not unique to Steely Dan - but the way Donald and Walter used the chord, the voicings they chose, and the chord changes they used it in made it something rather special in Steely Dan music.

However, consider that rigid chord structures occur most often in improvisational music (especially jazz), which is usually not rigid in itself.
That is, the first four bars are the I chord, the next two the IV chord, the next two the I chord again, and so on.
One-chord "structures" are uncommon, but they do exist.

 rpsoft 2000 music chord theory
We had said that a major chord was made up of the first, third and fifth notes of the scale, C, E and G. A minor is close, but it “flats” the third.
So a C minor chord would be: C, Eb, G. Note that we could have shown this also as: C, D#,G since D# and Eb again are the same note.
So a C major chord again is C, E, and G, which are the first, third and fifth notes of the scale.

 Easy Chord Construction
The name of the chord is based on the first note of the chord which is called the “root.” A chord is technically defined as 3 or more notes arranged by thirds.
The reason we return to the Major chord at the end of each cycle is so that it is easier to go to the next key.
Sometimes, chords sound better when you play the notes of the chord in a different order than the order in which they were created.
