Pre> Notes: ok - instead of trying to worry about the differences between G-->gsus, g-->c/g, and g-->am7/g I'm just calling it glick. The notes in the lick are (in order) g d g b c-c c b with The fifth and sixth tied. the second chord fits with any Of the three except that there isn't an a in it per se, But there does seem to be an e. on the other hand it does Have the same tone as a c/g would have. so I'm punting! :-)
