Ok. Play an A minor at the first and second fret, the open A minor chord. Bar, for example, the fith fret with your index finger and think of it as the nut. Make the same A minor shape with the other 3 fingers on the 6 and 7 fret and you have a D minor. Count up from the root of A, the a in
cAged, the open A string. It would go A#,B,C,C#, D. From the first fret to the 5 fret. Find the root for each of the 5 chords so you can name them and then start throwing a bar behind them and up the neck you go.
