This book uses chord charts, traditional music notation, and tablature, (also known as TAB).
CHORD CHARTS
This is a chord chart.
Page 6
Each vertical line, (up and down), represents a string. From left to right the vertical lines represents the 6th, or thickest string, then the 5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd, and 1st strings.
Each horizontal line represents frets.
Dots are placed on the chord chart to show you which strings and frets to hold to play a chord. Sometimes numbers are placed under the chord chart to show you which fingers to use for each note.
please see the next page for detailed examples of finger placement.
