Legend
W= Whole Note
H= Half Note
Q= Quarter Note
E= Eighth Note
S= Sixteenth Note
r= Rest
S= slide
B= bend
+= tie
.= Note is dotted
Note
I put the chords in a fraction form where the top number is the string number and the
number is the fret number
ex. 5/1= 5th string, 1st fret
In the chord legend, the fraction is the root, you add the 5th (one string up, two frets
to make the chord
In the notation, the fraction means only play that note, not a chord
