If you mean the D# chord....
This is the way I play it in the open position... Same fingering as an open C with the
pinky on the 1st string 6th fret...!!!

4th fret

It is the next note up from a D. Fourth fret second string = D#. First fret 4 string = D#. They are all over the place. 5 string 6th fret = D# etc.You need to know where the D#s are to make them fit what ever run your doing. What area on the fretboard are you working around?
