How to play E♭–A♭–D♭–G♭ on guitar
The most common way, the first shape above: lay your index finger flat across the four strings from the low E to the G at the 11th fret. Don’t play the B and high E strings.
From the low E string 11 11 11 11 x x (x: not played, 0: open)
An easier E♭–A♭–D♭–G♭
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 D 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 2nd fret and your little finger on the high E string at the 2nd fret. Don’t play the low E and A strings.
