Chord Question

[Self]

I have written a song that uses a chord that chord finder doesn't recognize. Can anyone tell what it might be?

Hello,

Chords do not exist by themselves. They are within the context of a
tonality, and they operate as a chord progression with the chords which
are before and after.

What you are describing can be a dissonance (tension) which will resolve
on the next chord.

While I agree with Virtual, it could be a C major 9 major chord major 7
ninth

It's either:

Em7b13 - EGBDC, or
G6 add11 in 3rd inversion - GBDEC, or
Cmaj9 in 1st inversion - CEGBD

The Chord progression in this part of the song is roughly

C -> Chord in question -> Am7 -> G

in that case I'd say it's a Em7b13 - the V of Am - or in G major:
vi-ii-I movement - but I have NEVER seen a m7b13 chord. It's probably
better expressed as Cmaj9/E but then again both E is in the bass and
the B is above the C which is not a common inversion for a maj7 chord

Also, this is either in the key of C or G

Em7b13 - Am - G or iii-vi-V in C major or vi-ii-I in G
Cmaj9/E - Am - G or I-vi-V in C major or IV-ii-I in G

Since the m7b13 is rarely, if ever, used I'd go with Cmaj9/E
