Display value in chart even if count if zero

Looking to do a chart and even if the count of a value is 0 still diplay the name of the value. My search so far is:
sourcetype=app3* (app3_level="Fatal" OR app3_level="Error") | chart count by app3_level,app3_message

I tried to add to the end of the statement but it didn't help.
| fillnull value=0 app3_level

Most of the time there is not a "app3_level=Fatal" but I still want it to show up in the column. Any ideas?
