Can someone give me instructions on how to do guitar chords?

I’m having troube reading the simplest of tabs and I feel really stupid :L But, I’ve found that if someone writes something like ‘Put your 3rd finger on the 3rd fret of the 2nd string’ ect then I can do it. Can someone be awesome and just put in a few chords giving instructions on how to do it? (I know D and C) I will love you forever :) x

Answer #2

Okay you know what one looks right, correct? (this is going to be kind of hard, easier to show) Take the D for example. There is a dot on the bottom string and the third string from the bottom in the second section and a dot on the second string from the bottom in the third section. The sections represent the frets on the guitar. So you put your first f!nger on the third string second fret, your middle f!nger on the third string in the second fret and your ring f!nger on the second string in the third fret. Strum the guitar and that is a D. It doesn’t really matter which f!nger you use on which one just as long as you have them on the right string and in the right fret. (my friend thats here uses different f!ngers than I do)
