I started learning to play a couple of months ago and so far so good, except for the dreaded F chord. I have tiny hands and fingers and I'm finding the F chord impossible.
I've been trying to play it:
-----1-----
-----1-----
-----2-----
-----3-----
-----3-----
x-----------

and my index finger just doesn't want to do what it's told.
Does anybody have any tips? Maybe the placement of my thumb will help? Or maybe I'm holding the guitar wrong? Or maybe there's a diffirent way of playing F?
