Does anybody know where I can find decent tab for the [standard guitar, no bass] Concrete Blonde song: Joey? I've looked at a bunch of different sites but most of them only have the bass, and the ones that I've found for guitar are _really_ sucking; they're in some sort of shorthand tablature or somethi that I don't understand. :P I guess I'm rudimentary even in that knowledge I'm used to seeing numbers on a lineup of strings and that's it. :P
Any information on where to find what I'm looking for and/or how to read t other forms of tab is greatly appreciated. ;)

While tablature might seem like a good alternative to reading music, learning
what chord symbols mean for major and minor chords is the way to remember and
learn songs. When a guitarist plays a song they don't recall every single fret number, they use short cuts. Learning how to recall chords doesn't require learning how to read music and is my recommendation. You're probably

see tablature only available for a song, I usually wind up breaking it back down in my head into a chord structure, otherwise I wouldn't be able to remember it.
Actually no, I totally understand what you mean here. I used to know how
to read music, back when I was actually learning things the right way with m clarinet. Unfortunately I've totally lost that. Right now I'm thinking tha
