Am = x02210 Csus2 = x30033 A = x02220
Asus2 = x02200 Csus2#11 = x30032 A4 = x02230
Am7 = x02010 G = 32003x A5#11 = x02240
A7sus4/6 = x04035 D/F# = 20023x A5 = x02250
D4 = xx0233
D = xx0232
Hammer-on the Am following the Asus2,
and slide up from the Am7 to the A7sus4/6.
In the choruses the upward progression on the A chords is easier
if played as a barre chord, but without playing the top string.
