How to play F♯m9 on guitar
The most common way, the first shape above: lay your index finger flat across the five strings from the low E to the B at the 2nd fret, your ring finger on the A string at the 4th fret and your little finger on the high E string at the 4th fret.
From the low E string 2 4 2 2 2 4 (x: not played, 0: open)
An easier F♯m9
The full shape is a barre chord, hard at first. This one needs no full barre and sounds much the same: your middle finger on the low E string at the 2nd fret, your ring finger on the D string at the 2nd fret, your index finger on the G string at the 1st fret and your little finger on the B string at the 2nd fret. Let the A and high E strings ring open.
