The Fsus2maj7 chord is played as described here:

1st string (lower E-string) Thumb on fret 1

2nd string ring finger on fret 3

3rd string little finger on fret 3

4th string open

5th string index finger on fret 1

6st string open

However, in the song Dougie doesn't play the 6th string in the first verse

and chorus but does add it from

time to time in the interlude after the first chorus and onwards in the song.

This is why I added the

"maj7"-bit on the Fsus2maj7-chord only after the first chorus. So the chord

shape is the same for Fsus2

and Fsus2maj7 and the only difference is that the 6st string isn't played

during the Fsus2-chord.

I know that it might not technically be correct to write it like this but not

sure if there is a "correct way"

to write it since he doesn't play all the notes in the Fsus2/Fsus2maj7-chord

in the first part of the song

but hopefully this explanation is helpful enough.
