The G7 suspended fourth chord, or G7sus4, is made up of four notes: G, C, D, and F. This chord combines a root, a perfect fourth, a perfect fifth, and a minor seventh, creating a sound that feels open and unresolved, almost as if it’s waiting for something to happen. You’ll often find it in rock, pop, and gospel music, where it adds a touch of suspense or tension before resolving to a more stable chord. In a chord progression, the G7sus4 might hang in the air, creating anticipation, before gracefully landing on a more grounded chord, giving the music a dynamic and engaging feel.
