To play the Dmaj7 chord, perform a barre by pressing your index finger on the top g-string, C-string, and E-string on the 2nd fret and ring finger on the 4th fret of the bottom A-string.
The Dmaj7 chord contains the notes D-F#-A-C#.
To build a Dmaj7 chord, take the major seventh chord formula (1-3-5-7) and apply it to the D major scale (D, E, F#, G, A, B, C#).
Identify the first, third, fifth, and seventh scale degrees in the D major scale, which are D-F#-A-C#, giving you a Dmaj7 chord.
