How to play C♯m7(add11) on guitar
The most common way, the first shape above: lay your index finger flat across the four strings from the D to the high E at the 2nd fret, your ring finger on the A string at the 4th fret and your little finger on the G string at the 4th fret. Don’t play the low E string.

An easier C♯m7(add11)
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 4th fret, your middle finger on the D string at the 4th fret and your ring finger on the G string at the 4th fret. Let the B and high E strings ring open. Don’t play the low E string.
