Simple chord (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

triad

'simple chord' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for triad that I've seen before include "three making a sound?" , "Set of three; chord" , "Chinese secret society" , "Group or set of three" , "Could be major" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, the Newsday, The Mirror and the LA Times.
