E A D GBE are the notes that the standard guitar is tuned to,
starting from the 6th string( lowest pitch)low E, then A, going higher to D G B E(high E).
When you play the open E string, the note is E. When you fret it on the first fret, that makes the pitch 1/2 step higher or F.
Fret it on the 2nd fret you have F sharp. If you are familiar with
the piano keyboard, each fret up the guitar represents going up one key (white or black) on the piano. Thus, on the E string the notes are E F F# G G# A A# B C C# D D# E. This last E is on the 12th fret. Figure the notes on the other strings by starting with the letter name of the open string, And going up 1/2 step for each fret. As a point of reference if you get confused, open strings( 6-1) are EADGBE. At the 5th fret they are ADGCEA, and at the 12th fret, EADGBE (low to high)
Hope this helps you.

just continue up the scale from the string you start at.
no B# or E#

(after a while you can figure out the note about anywhere)

E-F-F#(Gb)-G-G#(Ab)-A-A#(Bb)-B-C-C#(Db)-D-D#(Eb)-E
A-A#(Bb)-B-C-C#(Db)-D-D#(Eb)-E-F-F#(Gb)-G-G#(Ab)-A
D-D#(Eb)-E-F-F#(Gb)-G-G#(Ab)-A-A#(Bb)-B-C-C#(Db)-D
G-G#(Ab)-A-A#(Bb)-B-C-C#(Db)-D-D#(Eb)-E-F-F#(Gb)-G
B-C-C#(Db)-D-D#(Eb)-E-F-F#(Gb)-G-G#(Ab)-A-A#(Bb)-B
E-F-F#(Gb)-G-G#(Ab)-A-A#(Bb)-B-C-C#(Db)-D-D#(Eb)-E

These are the notes on a 6 string guitar in standard tuning. At the 12th fret everything repeats. Just keep in mind there is only 12 notes and everything is repeated at various points on the neck, only in different octaves. Also notice that the notes in brackets are there because some people may refer to a B flat(b) for example as an A sharp(#) and vice-versa. As a previous answer stated, there is no E#(Fb) or B#(Cb)

Hope this helps!
