how do you play a gsus chord on the piano?

Q. I WANT TO TRANSLATE guitar chords to piano chords

A. Instead of playing a B in the major triad (G - B - D), you play a C, so the notes should be G - C - D for a Gsus4. For a Gsus2 chord, you play an A instead of the B, so the notes should be G - A - D. So for Gsus4, go up a semitone (move up one white key to C), and for Gsus2 you go down two semitones (move down one white key to A).

Original Question

what chord has the notes GACD in that order?
Q. on piano. thanks in advance :)

A. It really depends on the function of the chord. What are the chords before and after? It could be some form of a Gsus chord, or an Am7sus4, or a transitional harmony - not really functioning as a chord but more a collection of leading tones. The thing is that chords don't just exist in a vacuum, so the same group of notes could be more than one chord, and must be defined by their function within a piece.

Original Question

Piano Chords help I need chords translated into notes...?
Q. Bm7 Em Am7 GB G Gsus
Any help at all would be greatly apreaciated, thanks.
Here is the song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArrZ3AxdLfg (listen to the intro).

A. Use the root note for the bass... Bm7=B

Bm7: b d g (to capture the 7th, drop the upper b in the bass one whole step, which is an a)

Em: e g b

Am7: a c e g(for the 7th)

G: g b d ... play B on the bass

Gsus: g b d (sus a 2 or 4? - try adding c)
