C, e, g and d are the notes that give the cadd9 and the 5th and 6th notes that give the gadd7 chord. Now that we have the chords, we need to figure out how to play them. The first thing to do is to find the root note of the chord we are playing. In this case, it is C, so we will use that as our starting point.

Is Cadd9 the same as C?
The color notes are referred to as extensions in music theory. The 9th note of Cadd9 is also referred to as a “color note”, because it is a hint at the actual note being added. In the following example, we’ll look at a C minor chord that includes an extension called Cmaj7b5.
This chord has a major 7th and a minor 3rd, so it’s a good place to start if you want to learn how to play minor chords.
(Cmin7B5) (click to enlarge and hear the audio) C Min7 B5 (minor chord) – C Major chord (m7, b5, m7) The Cmin5 chord in this example is the same as the one we saw earlier, except that it has an extra note added to it. In this case, it is called the “C minor extension”.
This is a very common chord type, and it can be found in a lot of popular music.
Why is it called a Cadd9?
Cadd9, because it’s a C chord (C-E-G) with a 9th added, that is, the note one octave up from the 2nd.
The principle applies to both C-F-A-B-C and C-F-A-B-C. below)

if you want to play the C major scale on the guitar you can do it like this: C D E F G A B C# D# E# F# G# A# B# C. This is the same scale as the one you learned in the previous lesson
instead of C and D and E and F and G and A. In other words this scale is called the “C Major Scale” (or Cmaj7) because of the addition of a 7th to the first note of each scale degree which gives it the name “7th-added” scale.
You can learn more about this by listening to this lesson on how to learn scales.
How do you pronounce Cadd9?
A 9 might be preceded by something else. The first two letters are pronounced ‘c add nine’ and ‘e flat minor add 9’. If you want to add a 9 to a chord that already has one, you can do so by adding the 9th note of the chord to the root note.
For example, if you have a C major chord with a root of C, then you would add the C9th to that chord, and so on. This is the same as adding an 8th or an 11th, or any other number of notes. The only difference is that you don’t have to do it in the exact same order as you added the other notes, so it’s easier to remember.
Why is C major so hard?
C major can be difficult to learn. The main reason is due to the stretch that all three fingers need to make. Most of the shapes you have tackled up to now will span two frets, while the C major is only able to span one.
This means that you will have to stretch your fingers in order to play the chord. This is why it is so important to have a good teacher to help you with this.
If you don’t have one then you are going to end up with a lot of wasted time trying to memorise a chord shape that doesn’t exist in the key you’re learning it in. It’s also why you should always try and learn a new chord at least once in your life.
You never know when you might need it, and if you can’t remember it then it’s probably not the right chord for you.
What chord goes well with Cadd9?
Cadd9 chord resolves best to a major and a minor. Cmaj7 chord can also be used to resolve to any chord in the key of C, such as G, D, E, F, G#, A, B, C# or D#.
What is the hardest guitar chord?

What chord is CEGD?
C major 9th is c-e-g-d. The open and light sound of the D is great for playing when you want to add a bit of brightness to your progressions. Notice that we have added a minor 3rd to the chord, which makes it sound more like a major chord.
You can play this progression in any key, just make sure that you play it in a key that has a tonal center (C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C, and so on).
