This is the E major chord. Each number tell you which finger to place down; 1 being index, 2 is middle and 3 is ring finger.
This is the 2nd chord we'll learn, the A major chord. Notice the 1st finger is on the same string as it is in the E major chord.
To change between the E chord, A chord and to the D chord, keep your 1st finger down, lift off the others and slide the first finger between the 1st and 2nd frets
