The F♯7 chord
A dominant 7th adds the flat 7th to a major chord. It sounds unresolved and pulls toward the chord a 4th higher, which is why blues and rock use it so often.
Numbers on the dots are fingers: 1 index, 2 middle, 3 ring, 4 pinky. ○ means play the string open and × means don't play it. Orange marks the root note. The tab reads from the low E string to the high E string.
