Alrighty....
One thing that you are going to need to learn, is "tabs"
TAB is a form of shorthand for illustrating how to play six-string guitar. It's a simple graphic representing the strings and frets to pluck. It can also show how to pluck the string. TAB allows anyone to pick up a guitar and play the right notes, in the proper sequence, without understanding which notes they are.
TAB tells you almost nothing how long to hold a note, or how fast to play a passage.
If you are very familiar with a song, TAB is a fine way to learn it. However, you will never be able to properly play a song with TAB alone. Use it for it's strengths, but for new music, you need to learn how to read music notation and the fretboard of your guitar.
--------
on the first string, strum this pattern:
open string - first fret - second fret- third fret - fourth fret
**hit each fret with the corrosponding finger (pointer, middle ring, pinky)
** a fret is the spot in between two metal bars on the gutiar.
** practice that pattern on, each string, and try to get into a rhythm, of going from first to last string. then do it backwards.
I've been plaiyn guitar for many years, and this is still a warm up excersize that does wonders
