How to play B♭7(add13) on guitar
The most common way, the first shape above: lay your index finger flat across the three strings from the A to the G at the 1st fret, your ring finger on the D string at the 3rd fret, your little finger on the B string at the 3rd fret and your little finger on the high E string at the 3rd fret. Don’t play the low E string.

An easier B♭7(add13)
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 A string at the 1st fret, your middle finger on the G string at the 1st fret, your ring finger on the B string at the 3rd fret and your little finger on the high E string at the 3rd fret. Let the D string ring open. Don’t play the low E string.
