1. Place your fingers on the following frets:
- Index finger on the 1st fret of the 3rd string (G)
- Middle finger on the 2nd fret of the 5th string (A)
- Ring finger on the 3rd fret of the 4th string (D)
- Pinky finger on the 3rd fret of the 2nd string (B)
2. Make sure your fingers are pressing down firmly on the strings and you are not muting any other strings.
3. Strum all six strings.
The D minor chord should sound clear and full. If it sounds muddy, you may need to adjust your finger placement or press down on the strings more firmly.
Here is a diagram of the D minor chord on the guitar:
