This chord can seem a little stretchy at first but it will soon limber up. Make
sure that the tip of your 3rd finger is touching the sixth string to mute it (the
low E is really not a hip sound). Also make sure that you are using the very tip
of your first finger so you don't mute the first or third strings.
Alternatives
No fingering alternatives that I know of, but sometimes the 4th finger goes
down on the third fret, first string (the note G), just as a variation (but it is still
just a C chord).C Major - Open Chord Voicing
