it's an acoustic/electric guitar.

First thing, get yourself a chord chart and just copy what you see. Start out with the easy chords like, G, C and D. D is the ultimate easiest chord to play. Then work on Am and E, they're pretty easy too. After you do that you can definitely play "Lonely People" and many of the Eagles earlier songs, which are very simple. You can find one of their songbooks for probably pretty cheap.
The main things is in the first year of playing guitar the tips of your fingers will be sore. Don't worry, eventually you'll get these callouses that you can show off to your friends and they'll go, "Ooo did that hurt?" They're your guitar war scars. The girls will get all woozy... and okay. I'll tell you more about the guitar if you want later. For now, signing off.
D is the ultimate easiest chord to play.

Here's one I found that has more chords than anyone would know what to do with:Ultimate Guitar Chord Chart. Luckily, I have a chord chart on a small sheet of paper that came from some pocket Praise and Worship song book (spiral back). It has a few hundred chords.
