Cords
Can anybody help me please?
I have a sheet but I cannot understand it exactly. I uploaded it as an attachment. I really want to play it in harp, but I have never studied the chords like "Csus4" or "Dsus4".
Anyway, it is just a shorter version that I get from the writer, I dont have a sheet of the whole melody (this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSvQ1G6icz4)
So I ask you, if you could help me, and write this sheet down again, but instead of the chords, use notes please (so i could understand it too. :) Or please write a sheet of the whole melody base on the youtube video :)
Thank uuuu!!!

Well, this notation is referring to Suspended Chords.
Although the WikiPedia article that I referenced does a rather poor job of explaining it, the term, “suspended,” basically refers to the idea that a fourth interval is presented “for (usually) one measure longer,” when your ear would have expected it to go ahead and resolve down to a nice, stable third. In this way, the expected resolution-to-a-third is “suspended” for a measure or so. (In effect, the chord change takes place in two stages.) This creates a nice, jazzy little bit of tension in that one chord, but, not too much.
“So, ‘the shoe didn’t drop’ ... yet ...” but the expected resolution to a third should occur in the very next chord change. A suspended chord is “a promise made” that must be kept.
