-----------------------------------------


I hope the following will assist!

OK. The numbers on the strings should relate to which finger to use -

't' is thumb, 1,2,3 are 1st, 2nd, 3rd fingers respectively!

So the D chord (xx0232) picked like this

E-------------------|
B-----2-------2-----|
G---1---1---1---1---|
D-t-------t---------|t...... etc
A-------------------|
E-------------------|


The A chord (x02220) like this! nb finger '3' can be left out or played simultaneously with '2'!

E---------------------------|
B-------3-----------3-------|
G-----2---2-------2---2-----|
D---1-------1---1-------1---|
A-t-----------t-------------|t....etc
E---------------------------|

...and so on for the other chords.
