The G suspended fourth chord (Gsus4) is a unique and intriguing sound that seems to hang in the air. It's made up of the notes G, C, and D, which means it's built with a root, a perfect fourth, and a perfect fifth. Unlike most chords, it doesn't have a third, giving it an open and unresolved quality. You'll often hear this chord in rock, pop, and folk music, where it adds a sense of tension and anticipation. In a chord progression, the Gsus4 creates a moment of suspense that invites resolution, often leading beautifully back to a G major chord, making the music feel complete and satisfying.
