The way I play this (how i think it sounds best) is with the B string pressed down in the first fret and the 
high E pressed down in the 3rd fret the entire time, except when playing Am. So the chords look like:
Am: xx2210
C:  x32013
G:  320013
F:  x33213
It sounds fine if you want to play them normally, though.
Capo on 5th fret.
