The first song on this page is written in two different ways; the first being an easy version that is entirely on one string. If this one seems easy, move on to the second line, where the musical figure is written exactly as it was originally played by the artist. Notice how it moves across different strings, rather than running up and down only one string like previous exercises. The two vertical dots at the end of each line is a common musical symbol called a repeat sign. This indicates that the written line, or multiple lines, is to be played more than once.
