In jazz music when we are accompagnating a melody,
we use voices, for example a chord with four tones

eg: C E G B

could be played with three other combinations:

E G B C, G B C E, and B C E G

The highest note of the voice would be the note used in the melody.
this example is one of the simpliest, we could also use the same way
with thirteen chords, with seven sounds instead of four sounds, then
there would have seven combinations for each chord.

In fact we can give any color we like to a melody, it just depend on
what kind of mode we are using for accompagnating it.

eg: in 'Autumn Leaves' the first note is the third of the first chord,
then it gives a sad color (minor third), but we can give another color
with using another chord, for example we could use G7 instead
of Dm:

Dm - G7 - CM7 - FM7 - Bm7b5 - E7 - Am becomes
G7 - C#° - FM7 - Bb7#5 - Dm7 - Dm7M

and then the automn leaves melody would sound more 'myxolydian'.

Notice that some chords has to be modified for sounding better in that weird
harmonic context.
