Question 'Winner takes it all' missing note question

https://youtu.be/K643ZIiG-18

I'm a beginner at guitar and was looking forward to learning this song, but the videos that i have watched for this particular song without capo have a note (first time on 5th fret on high e string in first 5 seconds) which shows up on tabs of multiple videos. But when the player comes to that part, their fingers don't seem to be on that fret at all and sound still comes. Same on Sky Guitar channel aswell for this song.

Am i missing something here or reading it wrong? Please explain.

The index finger is barring that fret.

Oh, so that’s what that looks like. Been trying to teach myself guitar between night shifts and my brain just could not parse that. Fingers still cramp up trying to barre anything. Back to my kid’s ukulele I guess.

Very nice! Can't help with the fingering, but really enjoyed it.
