each line is the string
the number is the number fret that you have to play, you have to work out timing for yourself normally unless you use Guitar Pro software, which can play tabs back in MIDI format.

Tabs isnt the best way to go when learning songs either, trust me. Try going on you tube to see if anyone has done cover videos for the songs you like (i.e. SoloDallas covering More than a feeling).

its pricey... there is no point in getting them... try playing Iron Man, its easy and fun ^_^ after you get good try to learn a song by just listening to it... its HARD at first but you will get it  :tup:

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/ is an amazing site for guitar tab.

If you'd like tab, thats where you should look first.

Mind you, learning how to read music really has it's benefits.
