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
This is the DmMaj7 shape moved up one position, so barre the G and C strings at fret 2 with your middle finger, set the index on the E string at fret 1, and reach the pinky to the A string at fret 4. The wide pinky stretch is what trips players up — keep the wrist forward so all four fingers stay arched and the strings ring.
