Danny Grady: Let's take a look at some Sus Chords. Start again we use C as our root A, B, C. I am going to do a form that's similar to the major form with our fifth string root. First finger here on C then your third finger is going to bar here on the fourth fret of the fourth, the fifth fret of the fourth, the third and the second string.
Now, you are going to add your pinky to the sixth fret of the second string and that's C sus. If you bring it down to B, you are going to have B sus, if you bring it down though that your first finger is on the B flat, we have B flat sus.
So again my first finger is frighting the first fret of the fifth string, third finger is barring on the fourth, the third and the second strings on the third fret here, and pinky is on the fourth fret of the second string. That's B-flat sus. Bring it up, so that our root is here on E, E sus, E-flat sus, D-flat sus.
Now, because of the tunning from the third string to the second string, which is tuned to major third, you can do suspended second chords also if your root is the fifth string.
Let's try those. Again we will start with C as our root, bar all the way across from the fifth string on down here with your first finger, third finger goes on the fifth fret of the fourth string and pinky goes on the fifth fret of the third string. And that C suspended second, if we will make our root D, we have D suspended second. Come down we'll make our root B-flat here, B-flat suspended second.
Male Speaker: This is Long Train Runnin by The Doobie Brothers. The song is the key of G minor and standard tunning, in the fifth major we are going to go to a C minor seventh chord. So for this chord I grab my first finger at the eighth fret of the third string, my third finger on the tenth fret of the four string, and my fourth finger on the eleventh fret of the second string.
