It’s the same notes as a Bbsus2, but with an F as the first note in the chord instead of the last. Alternatively, one can opt to play an Ab/Eb here and this sequence will sound pretty much the same overall, but on the Brian Wilson Presents Smile version of the backing track, “Bbsus2/F”, if you want to call it that, is what is played) Bb/F Eb/G End Tag: Fm7 Eb Bbsus2/F (See my above explanation) Bb/F Eb/G I’ve read that some of these chords don’t translate well to guitar, which is something I’ve also heard is true for a lot of other Brian Wilson songs. However since I don’t play guitar myself, I have no idea how true or untrue this is. The KZbin channel "Sofa City Sweetheart" has a guitar tutorial for Surf's Up that may be worth checking out if you haven't seen it.
