Chords

The act of having sex on a group of powerchords, preferably on your friends' set and not you own. Its mostly for payback or laughter reasons.

Jane: Keep going, don't stop.

Chris: Why the hell are we doing this on your roommate's powerchords?

Jane: She took my heels last night, this if REVENGE!

Jesus chords

The basic major and minor chord shapes, as generally played on an acoustic guitar. They are commonly referred to as the 'Jesus chords' simply because they make up the majority of Christian worship music. Singer/songwriters are also well-known for playing these chords frequently in their music.

A guitarist who is only playing 'Jesus chords' (and not using a capo) will rarely, if ever, move his hand past the 4th fret.

Major chords:
E, F (barre), G, A, C, and D major

Minor chords:
E and A minor, B minor (movable), and barre chords that don't include the 3rd finger (movable)

I can kinda play guitar...well, I know the Jesus chords, at least.

shitting chords

When your poop comes out in three pieces - all slightly increasing sizes, with the quantify representing the three ascending frequencies of a musical chord.

Alternate definition - when making a loud poop, your farts are so fast and furious they overlap three times to produce a musical chord.

I had some funky tacos yesterday and this morning I was shitting chords.

power chords

a major chord contains the 1, 3rd, and 5th notes in the major scales. a power chord omits the 3rd, and inludes only the fifth. powerchords often include the 8th, which is really just the 1st, an octave higher.
