Most guitar beginners’ guides will show you how to play the various guitar chords the way you would play them on a right handed guitar. After a while, you will learn how to translate them automatically in your head to their left handed form, but it would be easier if you had them shown to you ready-made for your left handed way of playing the guitar. I gathered here sources for the left handed beginner learning to play chords on his or her left handed guitar.
In the following link you can find a table of guitar chords for lefties (note you can navigate to more chords by clicking “Next” or “Prev” on the top-right part of this page, immediately on top of the “A Minor” scale).
Youtube also has a lot of short videos showing how to play left handed guitar chords. Especially helpful is a series by Stephen Haendiges teaching how to play a left handed guitar. Here are some of his videos
Playing a G7 Chord:
Playing the B Chord:
Playing a D Chord:
And one more advanced video, showing how play harmonized chords on a left handed guitar
I really recommend this series of teaching videos in youtube. Search in youtube for "stephen haendiges left handed guitar" and you will get the list.
