    Minor chords are very common and used in many songs. They are denoted with a lowercase "m" after the chord name like "Em". Minor chords are created by lowering the third note by a half-step compared to a major chord, making the interval between the root and third a half-step smaller. The interval between the third and fifth notes stays the same as a major chord. Minor chords have a dissonant, tense sound compared to the full sound of major chords.

    Piano Lession #6: Minor Chords

    Minor chords are the next type of chord you should be familiar with. These are very common, and used in almost any song. Minor chords are denoted on chord sheets by the lower-case letter m after the capital chord name. Em, for instance, indicates that you should play an E-minor chord. Minor chords are created by lowering the third by one half-step. That means that the distance between the root and the third of a minor chord is one and a half steps, instead of two whole steps as in a major chord. The distance between the third and fth of a minor chord is two whole steps, instead of one and a half steps as in a major chord. You will quickly recognize the difference when you play a minor chord. Where major chords sound full and complete, minor chords sound dissonant - they sound a little off, or wrong, and create tension. Practice playing major chords, followed by the same minor chord, to start training your ear to recognize the difference.
