E
E Major · 4 fingerings
The major triad is the first chord most guitarists learn and the backbone of nearly every style of popular music. E stacks a major third and a perfect fifth above E, producing the bright, settled sound that makes it the natural resting point of a progression. If a song is in the key of E, this is almost certainly its home chord.
