you want an F eh? the numbers to the right are your finger numbers. 1=index....4=pinky

e--X---
b--1---->2
g--2---->3
d--3---->4
a----------
e--1---->1

or if you can bar the high e and b strings with your index:

e--1---->1
b--1---->1
g--2---->2
d--3---->4
a--3---->3
e-------

or if you do what I usually do for that F chord you wanted I say to hell with the high e and b strings:

e--X---
b--X----
g--2---->2
d--3---->4
a--3---->3
e--1---->1

take your pick.
good, and you?
