Clearly the best chord is any chord used in a song by Iron Maiden *nods to Jimmy* UP THE IRONS!!!!!

He's not wrong.

 

[Armistice]

The best by far is the:

Mu chord - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ah, I wondered if the ol' mu major would get a look in. I tend to add seconds a lot... just like the sound in certain sequences, but I don't sound anything like Steely Dan...

 

[jjboogie]

Depends on the song!

Major 7 chords are beautiful and feel good!

 

[moresound]

A best cord by any other cord will still sound as sweet.

 

[ultrasound]

The best one is the one you get when you've just put new stings on the guitar but haven't attempted to tune it yet.

 

[Trax.Io]

E7.

 

[RogTaylor]

The best chords is definitely D. The first one you learn, and it inspires you to go on

 

[Synthzizer]

Chords are useless without chord progression (into the next chord) & Harmonic rhythm. Inverting one chord for effect is cool but will only last you so long. All these so called one-note or one chord songs are hot air.
