Can someone list me out chords from most basic to advanced. I know all my major and minor chords. I'm guessing those are most basic? What would come next, 7 chords?

My friend will come up with a bassline and I try to put some guitar with it, I figure out the root notes and put chords with it, but I always just use basic major and minor chords. I feel like it kind of restricts creativity. I want to open up my chord vocabulary. Anyone have any advice?

I know some more advanced chords but not many. All the basic minor and major chords sound really good, I just want to expand.
