You can start with learning the fret board. Learn the natural notes (A, B, C, D, E, F & G) on the 6th. and 5th. strings to start. These are your "root notes".

Look here...

And here...

Here he's showing you "power chords" or "fifth chords", basically half of
a barre chord. Once you're able to identify and play the fifth chords work on playing the full barre chord.

The other notes not shown/listed on the "Notes on Neck" diagram are sharps/flats. They're called "accidentals".

Here's some info...
