Get a beginners book like Mel Bay's Modern Guitar Method or something similar.
Its boring as hell but you learn the basics. Also, there are a lot of good websites around. I used cyberfret.com. I learned alot of cool songs pretty fast from it.
...also when i learned how to read tabs it helped SO much. I learned from a friend who was an experience guitar player. Try asking some people who are good.

esteban dvd he's good.

well i would take Guitar for Dummies, its generiic, but it really helped me out. i would suggest also learning how to read tabs and just looking for them free on the internet.

neil young...3 chords mostly E A G, some time D in many of his songs so you get the pleasure of learning chords and changes without getting bored.

Most songbooks have finger charts above the chord...very easy to figure out.

Hal Leonard Guitar Method Book1. That's what I started with. It's great. They have 1,2,3, and maybe 4. But I love it. Good luck with it!
