Hi friends,
I'm stuck trying to figure out the chords down below.
Intro / Verse Chords
e--0------------------------------------
B--12----12---12----------------------
G--12-----0-----0----------------------
D--10----12---12---7----9---5-----
A---0-----10---10---5----7---3------
E-----------0----8----3---5----1------
The third one (--12 0 12 10 8) Is ( -- B G D G C ) or so I think. My problem is how can I take those notes and figure out its chord name.
Another thing I'm struggling with is the strumming.

Easy one.
ok - chords are normally set out low (6th string) to high (1st string), so your notes are:
C, G, D, G, B - and you'll find that if you hit the open 1st string too it will sound ok, giving you an E (important) and meaning if you remove duplicates and put stuff in order you have C, E, G, B, D
C is your root note, E tells you it's a major chord, G is the (disposable) 5th of the chord. So far you've got C Major
B is the Major 7th of C, and that makes the D an extension, giving you an overall chord of Cmaj9.
