Q. ok, some im starting a praise band for my youth group and i play guitar. ive played for about 2 1/2 years, but i cant learn any of the songs because the chords are really wierd. theyre like, c2 and Bsus. what are they? help please!
A. Chester is correct.
It's incomplete for a chord to read "Bsus". It should say Bsus2 or Bsus4. And C2 should read Cadd2. Suspended chords are used extensively in today's Christian rock music, so if you're not familiar with them, get a chord book or chart. Sometimes suspended chords are played against major chords; that is, the piano might be playing a G chord, while the guitar is playing a Gsus4 against it, or a riff from the notes of a Gsus4. It's not a bad clash but it takes some getting used to, at least for someone of my generation (almost 50). It's actually kind o' cool.
The tune I linked is an example of a sus chord riff being played against a major chord, especially at the chorus, around 1 minute in. One guitar is playing an E chord-based riff that alternates between A and G#, giving it a back-and-forth between Esus4 and E major. It gently clashes with the other instruments, making the song a bit more edgy.
is there such chord as C#sus?
Q. or is it impossible or no such thing as a sharp suspended chord? cause i haven't heard of any, i transposed a song and the Bsus became a C#sus. and it just looks wrong. help me
A. Yep, it exists.
Here it is for guitar:

And for piano:

I'm a pretty mediocre guitarist so I don't play chords like this if I can help it. If you're playing a guitar you might try using a capo to transpose.
Does anyone know the chords for The Fray's new song, "Enough for Now"?
Q. If anyone, can post the piano chords somewhere, or even just give them to me and I can figure out how to play them it would be great because it is like my new favorite song
A. Opening: Eb minor-Bsus2-F#
Eb minor-C#-B
...Same with the verse
Chorus: Eb minor-C# (F bass)-F#-Bsus-C#-Eb minor- B
That's pretty much it, I figured it out this afternoon on the piano
