The Gord Lightfoot chord, 022400, mentioned above is EBEBBE or an E5 chord which rock players call a "power chord". There is no third (G#) so the chord can be either Ma or mi.
5 chords or power chords are not really chords since a chord has at least 3 different notes, but...
Bluegrass players often play a G5 chord 3X0033 or GXDGDG with no third (B).
