This piece of tablature, reads as if you were holding your guitar and looking down at the fret-
              board. So that the top line indicates the 1st or high e string and the bottom line indicates the sixth
              or low E string. In the above example you would play the notes in the order that they appear from
              left to right. The 3rd string should be pressed in the second fret and plucked, releasing that note
              you should then press the 2nd string in the first fret and pluck it. Finally, you would release the
              2nd string to pluck the 1st string without holding a fret.







           In each string, we put the number that represents the fret of the fretboard that should be
           pressed. Check it below:

           In this example, you should press the third fret of the string A with the left hand and play
           this string with the right hand. When other numbers appear in sequence, you should play
           one note after the other. Check it:

           In this case, you should play the 5th fret of D string, and then the 7th fret of the same
           string. After that you should play the 5th fret of G string and so on. Observation: the num-
           ber zero represents the free string (without pressing any fret), for example:
   16   17   18   19   20   21   22   23   24   25   26
