How to read the guitar chord charts

To clarify how to read the chord charts, the top horizontal line represents the high E string and the bottom horizontal line represents the low E string. The vertical lines separate each fret. The numbers in the blue dots tell you which fingers to use on the fretting hand.

For example, on the G Major chord, you use the:

2nd finger on the 6th string, 3rd fret
1st finger on the 5th string, 2nd fret
3rd finger on the 2nd string, 3rd fret
4th finger on the 1st string, 3rd fret
Circles represent open strings
On some other chords, X means to avoid the string
