Chord vs Cord : One letter makes difference

One extra letter makes a complete different meaning of these words, while the sound remains same.
The words are chord and cord.

The word chord with 'h' is something  that you hear or a shape you draw. But the musical chord is mostly used.

Ex - The singer played such a beautiful chord to start the song that the audience became emotional. 

But cord without 'h' is like a string, rope or wire that you can hold in your hand. Suppose the charging cord.

Ex - You plug your phone into a charging cord.
