I agree with taking at least a few lessons. What taught me the most though was going to a music store, finding the music books for some of my favorite albums and learning the chords from the little diagrams above the music that show you where to put your fingers on the strings. And then start playing and playing and playing.... before you know it (about 3-6 months) you'll know most of the basic chords and if you enjoy it enough you will get good enough to expand from there. I have been playing guitar for almost 25 years and it has never let me down.
