Eight Guitar Chords You Need to Learn Now!
The E minor chord is one of the simplest to play - only two fingers! Take extra care not to allow either of your fingers to touch any of the open strings, or the chord won't ring properly. Strum all six strings.

Note: in certain situations, it may make sense to reverse your finger position, so that your second finger is on the fifth string, and your third finger is on the fourth string.
