the dashed lines "------" represent a guitar string when a number appears on a string that means you play the fret of that number on the string which should be labeled.Read from left to right. When numbers appear on top of each other, this means you must play 2+ notes at one time

EX:

e-----2-2-2------2-2----------------------------------------
b---3-3-3-3---3--3--3----3----3--3--3--3----3p2-0----2------
g----2--2--2--2----2--2----2p0-2----2--2--2---2------2-----2
d------------------------------------2------2---2-----------
a--------------------------------------0--------------------
e--0-------------3-----------------0------------------------   

the 0 on the lower e string means that you will play the lowest sounding string without any fret pressed down. the next note will be on fret 3 of the B string (2nd highest sounding string) and so on progressing from there
