anyone who know music theory care to tell me or show me something that will tell me how chords interact with the melody? ive never been able to figure out how to use chords in tandem with a melody without it sounding like complete horseshit.

Basically, unless you're actively looking for dissonance (ie bebop or avant-garde jazz stuff), all the notes in a chord (2 in a fifth, 3 in a major/minor/diminished/augmented, 4 in a 6th and 7th, 5 in a 9th, 6 in an 11th and a 13th. When you play, say, a major on a guitar, you're playing the same note in a higher eight, 2 or 3 times) are to be found in the same scale that the melody is using. That creates harmony.
As for how to comprehend what chord progression you should use on a melody... see this:

Hell, just see all the videos in the series. It's like only a bit over an hour in total, and this lady is actually quite good at teaching the basics of music theory:
