The Asus2 chord
A sus2 chord swaps the 3rd for the 2nd, so it is neither major nor minor. It sounds open and often moves back to the major or minor chord.
Numbers on the dots are fingers: 1 index, 2 middle, 3 ring, 4 pinky. ○ means play the string open and × means don't play it. Orange marks the root note. The tab reads from the low E string to the high E string.
