I'm sorry if it came out funny. It wasn't supposed to. At least #3 didn't overlap to the next line like the other two. I'm sorry if you get the first two wrong; I won't blame anybody or penalize anyone. I apologize.

The only funny thing about this quiz is that I wish I played the guitar. I assume the letters on the extreme left are the chords used. And the numbers? Please help, I'm very musical, but not educated in guitar-eze.

The letters are the names of the strings (E,B,G,D,A,E); the numbers represent the fret on the guitar neck used to play the note. Tabulature is like a schematic diagram of a song; it's designed as a learning aid, especially for those trying to figure out a tricky part in a song they're trying to learn. It can be rather useful but unfortunately too many people seem to think they can use it to actually learn to play a guitar, which is not what it's for.

I can read them OK (stretch the window wide enough, and they don't wrap), I can even "play" the tunes in my head - I just can't work out what they are ;-)

2. By the lyrics under the tablature, it looks like Styx "Mr. Roboto"

One down, two to go. I shortened the first song's tablature to only eight notes so it wouldn't overlap.

I am only replying to bump this post up so that people can guess on what songs' tablature I used for this quiz.
And remember, good luck, and ma the best man or woman win. :)
