Practice Em and A and you're playing Pink Floyd! Yea, barre chords do take a toll on new players and others have stated it gets easier with time. In rock and roll a lot of players will play partial barre chords like the EAD and EADG only. Sometimes an AD string is all that's needed to get the sound of a particular song or riff.
