+ chord

[HOF dad]

looking at the Eagles "Please come home for Christmas" on a site shows an
E+ chord in the song. It's clearly the right chord, but I've never heard of or seen that name before.
What does the + indicate?

+ is an augmented chord... a sharped 5th. So, 1, 3, #5.

Thanks Kerbie - I'm not much of a theory guy and I know a bunch of you are.
I have looked at quite a bit over my years but never saw that one until today.
