Fmaj7 Ukulele Chord
A soft, mellow major seventh built from F, A, C and E. Warm and a touch jazzy, it's a favorite in ballads, soul and bossa nova where a plain F wants a gentler, more open-hearted color.

How to Play This Chord
Position your fingers on the fretboard as shown in the diagram. The vertical lines represent the four strings, from the top G string (left) to the A string (right), and the horizontal lines are the frets. Numbers inside the dots indicate which finger to use: 1 (index), 2 (middle), 3 (ring), 4 (pinky). An X means don't play that string; an O means play it open. A bar spanning multiple strings means one finger presses across all of them at once — this is known as a barre chord.
Tips & Tricks
Spread across four frets: ring finger on the G string at the second fret, pinky on the C string at the fourth, index on the E string at the first, and middle on the A string at the third. Keep your hand relaxed and let your fingers fan out rather than bunching—the pinky reach is the part to practice slowly.
