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

It's the Fm7 shape moved up a fret: index on the G string at the second fret, middle on the E string at the second fret, ring on the C string at the fourth fret, and pinky on the A string at the fourth fret. Keep your fingers curled and pressing just behind the fret wire so all four notes ring; if it feels cramped, relax your thumb and widen the spread between the two fret pairs.
