Chords != notes.
(Besides, technically speaking, the western chromatic scale, which divides
the octave into 12 notes, while certainly by far the most popular, is not
the only possible way of dividing an octave into notes. And even within the
western chromatic scale there is no one *absolute* correct way of dividing
the octave into notes. See, for example, "Pythagorean tuning".)

There are many more chords than just "major" and "minor". Even chords
that sound nothing like either (eg. the diminished chords).
