About the Am6 chord

A minor sixth is built from 4 notes: A (1), C (♭3), E (5), F♯ (6). The lowest note you play should be the root, A, highlighted on the diagram. You can play it in 6 places on the fretboard. The first shape is the most common; higher shapes make smooth changes easier in some keys.
