Where did you start on the guitar?

I figured out how to tune my first guitar to an open string major chord and then just used my index finger to bar the frets for Black Sabbath's Iron Man. I did this through a small Peavey amp with the gain cranked. I did this a lot. All the time. That's all I knew.

Daaa naaaa, daa naa naa, da naa na naa na naa na na naaaa naaa naaaa...

My parents hated me until I learned the intro to Roundabout, then I started to regret it since they wanted me to play 'that one song' all the time.

Eventually, I got a Mel Bay book and learned some proper chords and tuning.
