OK I really want to play guitar (acoustic) I know the chords not very fast at them but I know them and I'm not that great at plucking
But I'm REALLY confused on the tabs can some one help me?

I really want to learn a song called
I will fallow you into the dark by death cab for cutie

And I don't get the tabs

And I look for the tabs online for this song and it seems like every time I look all the tabs look different on diff. websites

I don't get how to read them or how to know what notes to play
Or what all the little numbers mean
Can someone help please?!

Basically the 6 lines are their 6 strings, the numbers are the fret on each string.
So If you see a #2 on the bottom of the 6 lines, that is Low E(bottom string)second fret, then following along you will see another number on a string, and so on. Then there are slides, bending, vibrato indications also.

Thanks that makes it a bit more easy

Do you know the tabs for that song?
Every time I search for them it seems that they are different

Be right back.

How do I know what chord to play?

Sometimes I have found several versions of tabs for one song. A song, the notes, can be make in different ways. Different tab makers have different guitar skills, guitars and sizes of hands.

Tabs are easy to read, once you get the hang of it. Notes are a language too. It takes time, but you can learn both. So, when you see that lowest string, second fret tabbed, you know that it's an F sharp.

I would have to listen to the song, probably won't be tonight.
However, If you look at the first 4 notes of your Tab it makes up the Am, you play 1 at a time, if those were all in line above one another it would be the Chord Am.
Then the 3 2 1 0 2 0, is the same as the Chord F, with the G string Open, play in the order shown.
I'll see what I can figure, Some songs require a second guitar, Or one Bad(good) Guitarist. Good Luck

Thanks!

Ohh yea and when you are reading the tab thing and the little numbers
Do you go up and down to pluck the little numbers


So it would be like 0 2 1 2 2 2 3 2 1 0 2 0

Exactly, Alternating Up and down allows you to go much faster than all downs.
Speed is probably not an issue, you have to listen to the song and Imagine How they are attacking the strings.
In your last post, it would be: Am, F(with G string open), Am, F(with G string open). Actually I see a couple of adjustments will have to be made.
Play the notes in order and you have it. Get it exact first, then speed up.

Thanks
