An easier Fm(add11)
The full shape is a barre chord, hard at first. This one needs no full barre and sounds much the same: your ring finger on the D string at the 3rd fret, your ring finger on the G string at the 3rd fret, your index finger on the B string at the 1st fret and your little finger on the high E string at the 4th fret. Don’t play the low E and A strings.
