# Seventh Chords A seventh chord is a four-note chord built by stacking thirds above a root note, extending beyond the basic triad to include the seventh scale degree above the root. The most common types include the major seventh (1-3-5-7), dominant seventh (1-3-5-♭7), minor seventh (1-♭3-5-♭7), and half-diminished seventh (1-♭3-♭5-♭7). **Key formula:** Root + 3rd + 5th + 7th (intervals vary by chord quality) Seventh chords add harmonic color and tension to music, with the dominant seventh (V7) being particularly important for creating resolution back to the tonic chord.
