There are quire a few guitar chords that can be played using just one finger. Here are a few examples:   E Minor (Em): Place your index finger on the second fret of the D (4th) string. Strum all the strings. G Major: Place your ring finger on the third fret of the E (4st) string. Strum from the D (4th) string down G7: Place your index finger on the first fret of the E (1st) string. Strum from the D (4th) string down C Major (easy variation): Place your index finger on the first fret of the B (2nd) string. Strum from the G (3rd) string down, avoiding the low E (6th), A (5th), and D (4th) strings. A Major: Place your index finger across the second fret of the D (4th), G (3rd), and B (2nd) strings. Strum from the A (5th) string down, avoiding the low E (6th) string. These chords are often used by beginners because they require minimal finger movement and can help build confidence and familiarity with the fretboard.
