root, minor third, fifth
One note lower than the major triad, and it is the difference the whole of western harmony is built on. The extensions behave differently here than they do over a major chord: a minor seventh is the ordinary one, and the major seventh — the mmaj7 — is the borrowed sound that makes a line cliché move.
