An easier A♭m(maj11)

The full shape is a barre chord, hard at first. This one needs no full barre and sounds much the same: your index finger on the low E string at the 4th fret, your middle finger on the A string at the 4th fret, your little finger on the D string at the 5th fret and your ring finger on the high E string at the 4th fret. Let the G and B strings ring open.
