Cadd9 or C2 [-3x033]: middle on 3rd fret and 5th string (mute with this finger the 4th ring and pinky on 3rd fret. A7sus [-02033]: index on 2nd fret and 4th string, ring and pinky on 3rd fret. (I think just play the A string and then, the highest 3 strings). [I'm note quite sure about the of this chord] Dsus [--0233]: index on 2nd fret and 3rd string, ring and pinky on 3rd fret, middle in fret, so just lift your pinky and it's D, then put it back really fast and it's Dsus. (I that in studio version it sounds like D7, but it's a little complicated so this sounds too and is much easier.) B5/E [024400]: index in the 2nd fret and 5th string, ring and pinky on 4th fret; for the [-34400]: doing the previous chord, just press with your middle the 5th string on the fret. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I should be right, anyway try it and rate or comment, you can also mail me: (it's a zero in j053), for any question, correction or comment, but I hope this may be to you.
