Guitar music

This is sheet music, the traditionally recognised form of depicting a musical score, it's the way that guitarists learning musical theory or taking grades would be expected to read music. 
However, anyone in their right mind that wanted to learn a song would use tablature. This simply shows six lines, representing the six strings of the guitar and represents each note with a number, corresponding to the fret on the guitar...so where the first line says '2' you would play the 2nd fret on the 3rd highest string. simples!

These are the same piece of music represented in the two different forms of tablature.
