Play the notes in ascending order starting with the lowest pitch note, G, on the E string. Then continue playing the notes as they occur in the alphabet. A and B are the remaining two notes on the E string. Those three spell GAB. The A string has CDE, and the remaining three notes are FGA on the D string.
