  1. the number is the fret on which you play the note on

    and the bottom line on tablature is the sixth string E

    which is the fattest and closest to you

    so the top line  is the first string E ehich is the skinniest and farthest away from you


  2. the strings on guitar are

    EBGDAE

    the order it goes is

    E - the thinnest string

    B -

    G -

    D -

    A -

    E - the fattest string

    i always have remebered it as

    Easter

    Bunnies

    Get

    Drunk

    After

    Easter

    no when reading tabs,

    it is usually placed out like this

    E|------------------------------------...

    B|------------------------------------...

    G|------------------------------------...

    D|------------------------------------...

    A|------------------------0-0-2-0-3-0-...

    E|-0-0-2-0-3-0-5-3--------------------...

    somthing along those lines..

    so the numbers reprisent what fret you put your finger on when picking, and the line on which the number is played represents what string,

    so youd be playing the first part on the fattest string and the second part on the next string down (on your guitar(the higher pitched one)) and the next one on that fat string again. hope it helps

    best of luck

  3. the verticle lines are the lines that represent the six strings on a guitar....the horzontal lines are the frets you hold the line on. the dots on the lines is where you're supposed to place your fingers.

    index finger- # 1

    middle finger-#2

    finger before pinkey-#3

    pinkey- # 4

    the x's and o's tell ya how its supposed to be played. if theres an x over a line (way at the top) it means that the string should not be strung. if there is an o it means the string should be played openily. good luck =]
