Subject: RE: chord inversions. rick needs help!
Rick, that's the definition of a major suspended chord. C major suspended, written Csus and probably usually called C suspended, contains C, F, & G. As I recall, Gordon Lightfoot used suspended chords often enough to notice. Diminished chords and most augmented chords also deviate from the major or minor triad, usually by raising or lowering the 5th a half step. Hope this helps.
