Seriously, I was just playing that...
I learned it last month after watching that commercial where Bret Michaels appears out of nowhere in some couple's living room. It was easy to pick out!

E F#m A B
Sweet Thing
Curtis Lowe
God Knows Why
All use variations of this
I've been loving the G with the high e string fretted at the F# recently. Not sure what its called but I think it's the opening chord in The rain song by LZ..

I also like the open position of B Minor 7 on the 2nd fret. Great chord that almost never gets used.
2nd fret on the A string, open D, 2nd fret on g, open b, 2nd fret on E string.
Notes in the Chord: B,D,A,B,F#.
2nd fret on the A string, open D, 2nd fret on g, open b, 2nd fret on E string.

Really nice. And it goes great with one of my favorite chords that I can never find anything to go with, Am6 I think it is.
Open a, 2nd fret d, 1st fret g, 2nd fret b, open e.

Ha, nice, Robin.
I think that chord you are referencing is actually A major 7. I love that chord too.
A minor 6 would normally be played like an A minor chord with the F# on top (high e string 2nd fret). The Beatles used the minor 6 chord in a lot of their later tunes.
ETA: Some players would call the above A minor 6 an A minor 13 chord, since the 6th degree has crossed the octave threshold. Some call it one way, others call it the other.

You are Guitar Chord Jesus!
Funny you mention the Betles and that chord. My uncle is a huge Beatles nut and we were both playing a few years ago and discovered the aforementioned A chord was both our favorite chords. Makes sense now!

Love that chord. Try playing 2x0220 with it. I don't know what to call it, but it sounds amazing played with an A or an E. It's used in Radiohead's Fake Plastic Trees if anyone is wondering.
