D Minor because of its melancholical undertone Cry ... I often start to play this chord, followed by A Minor, some twanging and a bit solo to get in the mood Wink

I love this chord sequence:
FM7 BbM7 EbM7 C7
 
Originally taken from "Great Gig In The Sky", but i like to use it as an intro to the blues, which i play like this:
 
F F6 F7 F6 x2
Bb Bb6 Bb7 Bb6 x1
F F6 F7 F6 x1
C C6 C7 C6 x1
Bb Bb6 Bb7 Bb6 x1
F F6 F7 F6 x2

Gm - especially if Eb is in the bass so it actually is Ebmaj7. Going from a major chord to the minor version of it's third, while keeping the same bass key is actually playing the maj7th and gives for a pretty progression.

Here's a few lovely chord sequences:
Dsus2 Esus2/D DmM7 G/D (Pink Floyd - Us and Them)
Am Am/G# C/G D/F# FM7 Am (Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven)

I'm only listing things i know and CAN play. Otherwise the list would be way longer.

I'll be boring, too. I'm not really a great conoisseur of chords (I play drums, and until recently, completely self-taught), but recently I have been trying to play some keys, and as i thought, my favorite key and chord is Cm.
 
How many glorious masterpieces were written in Cm... and Dm... and Gm... i'm a sucker for minor chords and keys.
 
Also a sucker for padlock keys. Big smile

A very unusual question this one, but it makes a pleasant change!
 
I am not a musician, as such, but I do know a few chords on the guitar.
I suppose my choice is boring and basic, but I have always liked E minor.Embarrassed
