some special notation I used for this piece:
typical 'rockabilly' lick:
 
 --------------------- start the lick by picking the notes on the 2nd
 --10-------10---10--- and 3rd strings, bend the 3rd string up to the note

---9b(11)-(11)-(11)r9 in parens. hold the bend this way and pick the 2nd
 
 --------------------- and 3rd strings the required number of times. on the

last set, release the 3rd string back to its original
position. kinda like a pedal-steel, no?
 
 --3b---0------------- a 'slight' bend, usually pulled off to an open string.
