Learn your basic chords first
This big time.
Get a chord book, or look on the internet.
Learn 3 chords that go together. D G and A are good candidates. Or G C and D.
You can play a bunch of simple songs with just 3.
Practice strumming them and switching between them till you can do it without pause.
Throw in the appropriate minor chord that goes with them. (Em fits in with G C and D)
Once you can play them well, learn 3 more. E A and B. F C and B.
Learn bar chords next. This takes some finger stregnth. You will muffle strings for a while before you can pull these off. KEEP AT IT!
That should keep you busy for a while.

taught myself drums by listening to records. Then I got some instruction on fundamentals. Made me a much better drummer. Drums are different though.
Guitar or anything with notes, you must learn the fundamentals first, then you can start having fun playing songs.
