The chord I means the chord of the key you are in. If you are in the key of C, then I means chord C.

The chord IV means the chord of the subdominant, a perfect fourth above the key note. In the key of C, this is the chord F

The chord V means the chord of the dominant, a perfect fifth above the key note. In the key of C, this is the chord G.

So I - IV - V means C, F, G.

In the Key of G, it means G, C, D.

That's not a chord - it's a sequence.

Without giving any more details, a I-IV-V sequence involves playing major chords based on the 1st, 4th and 5th of the scale.

So in the key of C, a I-IV-V sequence would be C major-F major-G major.

Sometimes these things come with a little more detail, for example:

IIm7-V7-I (the ubiquitous "two-five-one" sequence)

in the key of C: D minor 7th - G seventh - C major

its a chord progression actually. say your base chord (I) is C. your fourth (IV) is F and your fifth (V) is G.
