[Question] currently struggling with the frets that are super far down the fretboard, is there a trick to it?

Been playing for a few months now and loving it every step of the way. I’m practicing a wide variety of chords and licks just to warm up and recently decided to try to learn “Mr Brightside” by the Killers and OUCH my poor fingers lmao. I have pretty small hands anyway and yet I’m finding it really hard to hold down chords from ~15th fret onwards.

People who’ve gone through this, what do you recommend I do? I’m obviously not going to let this stop me but even with my calluses my fingers are killing (no pun intended) me
