D#m7 Ukulele Chord
This minor seventh gathers D#, F#, A# and C# into a mellow, jazzy sound that softens the darker minor mood. It turns up in jazz, R&B and soul, and works as a smooth minor color in keys like F# major or D# minor.

How to Play This Chord
Position your fingers on the fretboard as shown in the diagram. The vertical lines represent the four strings, from the top G string (left) to the A string (right), and the horizontal lines are the frets. Numbers inside the dots indicate which finger to use: 1 (index), 2 (middle), 3 (ring), 4 (pinky). An X means don't play that string; an O means play it open. A bar spanning multiple strings means one finger presses across all of them at once — this is known as a barre chord.
Tips & Tricks
Place middle and ring together at the third fret on the G and C strings, index on the E string at the second fret, and pinky on the A string at the fourth fret. The wide pinky reach is the main hurdle, so keep your hand relaxed and your thumb low behind the neck. It's the same shape as Dm7 moved up one fret, so practice that first.
