Aren't they notes?? If they are, then they are definitely related to chords.
They are the six strings from -guess what - a six string guitar
Those are the pitches that each of the six strings on the guitar are tuned to, from lowest to highest.
Starting with the lowest, these notes are used for an open tuning on guitar--low E to high E.
They represent standard (not open) tuning in a guitar. Each string is tuned to that note.

breaks it all down for you
Yeah, that is standard tuning for a six string guitar, with 'E' and 'A' being the "thickest" two strings, and 'B' and 'E' being the smallest two.
Technically, they are related to everything about guitar (chords, scales, tuning, etc) as those are the notes produced by each string (when plucked 'open').
When I started learning guitar many years ago, my teacher taught me the acronym "Every Angry Dog Gets Bitten Eventually" to help me remember the string names.
its for tuning the guitar in the standard way .. but there are different ways of tuning like drop d tuning, here is a great website for different types of ways to tune a guitar www.chordbook.com
The letters represent musical notes, for a guitar each string is tuned in one of those notes
The notes of the open strings from lowest (thickest) to highest.
EADGBE is standard tuning for a six string guitar.
The turing, EADGB is of ascending perfect fourths, with an exception between G and B, which is a major third. Low E falls a major third above the C on a standard tuned cello.
The exception (major third instead of a fourth) in a guitar's standard tuning is to be explained by overtones and the tendency of thinner strings to vibrate sympathetically with the low strings.
One must not forget that, all in all, the guitar is designed as a harmony-oriented instruments, while the bass guitar has a melodic role, if not only rhythmic
In addition to the standard tuning there are many other forms of guitar tuning:
There is dropped tuning:
Dropped D tuning: DADGBE, also known as simply as drop D, is an alternate guitar tuning style in which the lowest (sixth) string is tuned down one whole step ("dropped") to D rather than E as in standard tuning (EADGBE or EADG).
Dropped C in which the lowest (sixth) string is tuned down two tones ("dropped") to C and the rest of the strings are tuned down one tone, thus making the overall tuning CGCFAD from low to high.
Dropped B - It is similar to Dropped D and Dropped C tuning, but it is lowered from the former by Three semitones and lowered from the latter by one semitone. The result is B-F#-B-E-G#-C#.
Dropped A - It is very low and requires extra-thick strings to use it. Modifications to the guitar might also be needed. It is nearly three and a half steps lower than the standard guitar tuning, so the result looks like this: A-E-A-D-F?-B'. There are also two alternate versions of Drop A: A-A-D-G-B-E and A-E-A-D-F?-A.
There is also downtuned:
E? Tuning is a kind of guitar tuning where all of the strings are lowered by a half-step. The result looks like this: E?-A?-D?-G?-B?-E?'. It is a very versatile tuning, as it can be combined with another style of tuning (e.g. Dropped D, Dropped C).
D Tuning, also called One Step Lower or Whole Step Down, is an alternate tuning to a guitar. Each string is lowered by a whole tone or two semitones. The end result is this: D-G-c-f-a-d'. It is used mostly by heavy metal bands to achieve a lower sound and by blues guitarists, who use it to accommodate string bending.
C tuning is a type of guitar tuning. The strings of the guitar are tuned two whole steps lower than standard tuning. The resulting notes can be described as either C-F-A#-D#-G-C or more often C-F-Bb-Eb-G-C.
B Tuning or B Standard Tuning is the standard tuning for a seven string guitar, where the strings are tuned B-E-A-D-G-B-E. B tuning can also be achieved on a six string guitar, when the strings are tuned B-E-A-D-F?-B. This tuning is popular among sludge/stoner metal bands.

Good luck! :)
