    Hi, I am Franklin Taggart. I am a guitar player and a guitar teacher and I would like to show you how to play an F chord on the guitar. The first finger on the F chord plays two strings, its simultaneously. It plays both the first and the second string on the first fret. So, you flatten your finger out across both the strings. Your middle finger plays the second fret of the third string and your ring finger plays the third fret of the fourth string. You strum the bottom four strings and youve made an F chord. Thats how you make an F chord.
