The notes in F♯add9
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), G♯ (9).
What a added ninth chord is
an add9 keeps a full major chord and adds the ninth on top (root, 3rd, 5th, 9th) — colour without changing the chord's job.
How it's used: A major chord with sparkle: it stays a I or IV but shimmers. Unlike a sus, it keeps its third, so its major/minor identity is intact.
The sound: Bright, sparkling, modern — a major chord with extra light. Where you'll hear it: Modern pop, worship, acoustic singer-songwriter, ambient rock.
