believe it or not, you get used to it. I can sight read the stuff now. It is actualy better for you if you can use just the chords for the framework and make up your own fills and licks. It is the difference between being a typist and a novelist. One just copies, the other creats.

I haven't tried this. It may make your life easier when you run into tab without a chord framwork. Let me know if it help.

In basic the Numbers are what frets you press down on the strings.

Tab tends to go in string order:

e
B
G
D
A
E
