The notes in Fmaj7

Because the uke's high-G string is re-entrant (it's a high note, not a bass), these notes don't stack low-to-high like a guitar — but the chord is the same: F (R), A (3), C (5), E (7).

What a major seventh chord is

a major 7th stacks a major seventh on a major chord (root, 3rd, 5th, 7th) — the major sound with a soft, dreamy sheen.

How it's used: It's the I and IV of a major key dressed up. Where a plain major is a statement, a major 7 is a sigh.

The sound: Lush, warm, jazzy, romantic — 'sophisticated major'. Where you'll hear it: Jazz, soul, bossa nova, neo-soul, and any ballad reaching for a softer landing.
