Learn To Play Guitar Tab - Amazing Grace (how to read guitar tabs)

You can play the notes with your right hand thumb. It is probably the easiest way to pluck the strings for now.

Maybe you are pressing down the guitar frets with your right hand index finger.

If you want to prepare for more difficult guitar melodies you can try to play the notes on the first fret with your index finger, the notes on the second fret with your middle finger and the notes on the third fret with your ring finger.
