How to Play This Chord
Position your fingers on the fretboard as shown in the diagram. The vertical lines represent the four strings, from the top G string (left) to the A string (right), and the horizontal lines are the frets. Numbers inside the dots indicate which finger to use: 1 (index), 2 (middle), 3 (ring), 4 (pinky). An X means don't play that string; an O means play it open. A bar spanning multiple strings means one finger presses across all of them at once — this is known as a barre chord.
Tips & Tricks
Lay your index finger flat across all four strings at the first fret, then add your middle finger on the C string at the second fret. This is a full first-fret barre, so the work is in your index: press near the fret, support with your thumb behind the neck, and strum slowly to find any string that's choking out.
