Csus4
Sus4About this chord
Csus4 has a suspended, open, and yearning mood—neither major nor minor—giving a bright yet unresolved, floating quality. Common in rock anthems, pop ballads, gospel, and contemporary worship, it’s also a staple sus sound in funk and indie. Beginner-friendly open position on guitar and easy pianistic voicing; often labeled C sus, C suspended, or C(sus4). Used to build tension that resolves to C major (sus4→3), pedal-point riffs, and cinematic drones; echoes modal folk colors heard in Celtic-influenced and Americana styles.
