Re: tablature

p stands for pull off, h for hammer-on, / and \ normally represent slides.. so 3p0 would be play the note in the 3rd fret then perform a pull off... good luck

You have to forget about what other people say; when you're supposed to die, when you're supposed to be lovin'. You have to forget about all these things. You have to go on and be crazy. Craziness is like heaven.
