What are the lines for?

  • Lines stand for guitar strings.   
  • The top thin line signifies the first string.
  • The bottom thick line signifies the sixth string. 

What are the numbers for?

  • Numbers indicate which fret you should hold down the string.
  • So a line with a number on it indicates a string pressed on a certain fret.
  • 0 means that it's an open string.
