Took s&ps Chord and made what I think are improvements.I think you'l find the

Thanks to S&P for laying the groundwork.

So I could be wrong, but I'm fairly certain that what's been labeled a "Gm" is actually a "D9 Add 11 / A".
Basically, a D major chord with an added 4th and 9th, but with the 5th (the A) only appearing below the root. From low to high it's tabbed:
5 - 5 - 4 - 0 - 3 - 0
Which would be:
5th - Root - Major 3rd - 4th - Octave - 9th
It's close to the Jazz "dominant 9sus4 chord"... only the 5th is suspended instead of the 3rd (and the 5th does appear in the bass in this case, too).
For any beginners looking to play that odd D9 chord, you can simply strum this easier fingering:
X - 0 - 0 - 0 - 3 - 0
Here's what that is in terms of the intervals:
X - 5th - Root - 4th - Octave - 9th
So it's almost exactly the same; it's just lacking the major 3rd in the voicing. But in exchange for that, you get a much easier transition from the G major chord you just played. All you have to do in this case is lift off all of your fingers except for the 3rd fret on the B string.
