1. String 4 (D): 3rd fret, index finger (barre), F
2. String 3 (G): 3rd fret, index finger (barre), B♭
3. String 2 (B): 4th fret, middle finger, E♭
4. String 1 (D): 3rd fret, index finger (barre), F
5. String 5, the short g: open, G, not in the chord

Sounds: F B♭ E♭ F  ·  B♭sus4 is B♭, E♭, F (1 · 4 · 5)

The 5th string: the short g adds the 6th over B♭sus4, a colour rather than a clash.

With a capo: on the 3rd fret it’s 0 0 1 0 (frets counted from the capo), an open Gsus4 shape. Spike the 5th string at the 8th fret to keep it in tune with the capo.

Open G tuning: gDGBD, the short 5th string first, then strings 4 to 1.
