Cb Minor 6, written Cbm6, is built from Cb, Ebb, Gb and Ab: the root, minor 3rd, 5th and 6th.

Its 3rd and 6th, Ebb and Ab, are its guide tones: they say what kind of chord it is, so voicings are built around them and the root is often left to the bass.

In the progressions here, Cbm6 is the iv6 of the Minor Plagal Cadence in Gb.
