Start with 5 sets of 5 reps on these lifts:
Monday: Squat, Bench Press, Barbell Row
Wed: Deadlift, Upper Press, Pullups
Friday: Squat, Inclined Bench Press, Cable Face Pulls (or another pulling exercise)
Do this for a month and don't worry about how heavy the weight is for a couple weeks, starting with just the barbell. Focus on form (YouTube!) and getting used to the motions.
Go slow. Don't push yourself until you feel comfortable. You can start with negatives or assisted pullups. Hitting a big compound movement (squat/deadlift), a push and a pull is a great rounded way to start lifting.
