The tonic note C builds 13 different chords from the notes in the C major scale. I have a section below for my term “Equal Chord”, but for now the tern is for 2 or more chords that have the same notes in them. The Ionian mode has only major or perfect intervals. Here are tables for the intervals in C Ionian and the notes and chords built on C:
D builds 14 different chords from the C major scale. Dorian mode is distinguished from the 2 other minor modes by the major 6th interval: only Dorian builds a minor 6 chord. Here are tables for the intervals in D Dorian and the notes and chords built on D:
E only builds 6 different chords from the C major scale. The most important interval that defines the Phrygian mode is the ♭9 – Dorian and Aeolian both have a major 2nd/9th. Here are tables for the intervals in E Phrygian and the notes and chords built on E:
F builds 16 different chords from the C major scale, 2nd only to G Mixolydian. The most important interval is the augmented 4th, also called the #11. If you have a #11 in the chord then it’s called a Lydian chord. Here are tables for the intervals in F Lydian and the notes and chords built on F:
G builds 19 different chords from the C major scale, however, 3 of them are my “double-extended” 7th chords. It’s the only major mode that builds a dominant 7th chord. Both C Ionian and F Lydian build major 7th chords. Here are tables for the intervals in G Mixolydian and the notes and chords built on G:
The note A builds 10 different chords from the C major scale. The Aeolian mode is also called the Relative Minor. You can look at it as in between the Dorian and Phrygian modes: it has a major 2nd like Dorian, but a minor 6th like Phrygian. Here are tables for the intervals in A Aeolian and the notes and chords built on A:
B only builds 3 different chords from the C major scale. See my notes on the m11♭5 chord in the next section. It’s common to see the diminished triad and the half-diminished 7th chords (m7♭5), but the m11♭5 is rarely seen. Here are tables for the intervals in B Locrian and the notes and chords built on B:
Here are the 6 non-standard chord names that I think are valid: 1. Add sharp eleven, add#11: a Lydian chord that I only found by accident and I like it because it’s dissonance sounds interesting. 2. The add9/11 equals a 13sus and both sound fantastic! 3. Add 9 sharp 11, add9/#11: another Lydian chord that sounds great. 4. Suspended add 9th chord, s...
Here are the chords that, although technically possible to build, are invalid chord names in my opinion. Meaning, no one really actively tries to add them to their harmonies.
I always thought it would be interesting to write a song with only unique chords of the major scale. And by unique I mean a chord that does not equal another chord regardless of the inversion. Examples of unique chords are a major, minor or diminished triad, or major 7th and dominant 7th. Contrast that with what I call chord equivalents or multi-na...

You just need to understand two things to write out all twelve diatonic major scales: 1) The space pattern between notes (structure) and. 2) How sharps (#) and flats (b) control those spaces. As a review, the key of C is the only key that does not require the use of sharps or flats to become a diatonic major scale; begin on C, continue up the 7 ...
