Depends on what's wrong. If it's only fallen off all you have to do is lift it back on. If it's broken you're likely to need a chain-breaking tool to remove the damaged link and then a quick link to reconnect the ends. If you're lost the chain entirely you need to figure out which width and length you need before closing the chain again. www.bicycletutor.com, www.parktool.com or www.sheldonbrown.com can tell you all about what to do.

Shimano has both internally geared hubs and externally geared hubs, and the method can be a bit different depending on that. For external gears/assuming you're not cross-chaining - simply lift it back on. For internal gears you might have to move the rear wheel forward a little to get the chain back on to the sprocket. Don't forget to move the wheel back later to tighten the chain again

Grab it with both hands and hook it back on the big spiky wheel. Get on the bike and peddle and it should work.
