There are several different ways to tune a guitar.

The Standard is E A D G B E. The thickest string, ( closest to your body) is the 6th string or E. The next string is the 5th string is A. The following string 4th is a D.

the 3rd string is G. The second string is B. the First string is E.

You will notice the the strings are counted from the bottom (thinest string) up.

There are many alternate tunings: D A D G B E is called Drop D tuning.

Also Drop C, or tunings called Half step down or full step down.

You can Google alternate tuning methods for more info.
