The full shape is a barre chord, hard at first. This one needs no full barre and sounds much the same: your little finger on the low E string at the 6th fret, your index finger on the A string at the 5th fret, your middle finger on the B string at the 5th fret and your ring finger on the high E string at the 5th fret. Let the D and G strings ring open.
