Default Newbie question

I am a newbie at Excel and I am going to try to ask this question. I am sorry
if it sounds really amateurish, but I have exhausted my "searching for answer
on my own" skill. I am trying to create a chart that is comparing 3 different
types of data. 2 of which I could combine to put on right axis and one on
left. However, when I created a second axis it put my bars right in the
middle of the first axis bars and I want it next to it so that I could
accurately compare. I can not figure out how to move the second axis bars so
that they are next to first axis bars and are not stacked together. I really
hope that I stated my question clearly.

Thank you so much for your time.
