I'm now at ForOrchestra.com arranging pop songs for orchestra.

Augmented And Diminished Chords!

Augmented and Diminished Chords allow you to create tension in your music. Rather than simply using Major and Minor triads, you can flatten the third, or fifth intervals, and create ‘movement ‘ in your chords. Tension leads to release, and that’s how 7th Chords work, too!

So watch this below and learn about these chords – then try and use them in your songs and see if and where they fit.
