Throughout this tab I write out the chords in a way that some people
might
find confusing, I'll just give a quick example which hopefully explains
it.
- 1 bar of C is shown like this
C/// |
- 2 beats of C and then 2 beats of Dm are shown like this:
C/Dm/ |
- A 4 bar progression being repeated twice would be shown like this:
C/// | Dm/// | Em/// | F/// | x2 |
