Can someone please explain to me how the fuck do I play chords like this? I'm so bad at guitar and don't know any terms for it, I'm trying to teach myself how to play but it's really frustrating.

Do your index and middle fingers like a claw

Index and ring rather. My bad

Mute the fat string with your index finger or thumb

But do I strum all six strings or just those two?
>>
>>26259203
just those two
>>
front bottoms is my favorite band

don't start with that guitar takes the piss for the first couple weeks just go to a site like justinguitar.com.

it's a decent start and helped me. Don't do tabs yet when ur first starting out.

those are called power chords aka babby's first chords. unless the tab has 0's (which means play open) or x (which means mute) then only play the strings with numbers

pinky and index finger

The end of the tab should have an o for open stings and an x for the ones you don't play. Usually with power chords it is just the 2 shown.

You need to use the lower half of your main finger to mute the thinnest strings and use the tip of it to mute the top, thickest string.

I remember when I started learning and it was a bitch, just keep at it for a few weeks and it'll be easy to play these chords
