How to play Cm7(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 1st fret, your ring finger on the A string at the 3rd fret and your little finger on the G string at the 3rd fret. Don’t play the low E string.
From the low E string x 3 1 3 1 1 (x: not played, 0: open)
An easier Cm7(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 3rd fret, your middle finger on the D string at the 3rd fret, your ring finger on the B string at the 4th fret and your little finger on the high E string at the 6th fret. Let the G string ring open. Don’t play the low E string.
