    go to the guitart lesson page there u can find threads which can teach u how to read tab. I will try to make u understand in few possible words.
    As there are six strings in guitar. From thinner one to thicker
    e----
    B----
    G----
    D----
    A----
    E----
    Now for example
    solo of adat (because easier and known to ears)
    e|--4-5-4-4-4----4---------------------------------------------------|
    B|--------------------7—5-4-4-4---4-5-4-2-5---5h7p5-4----------------|
    here first u play thenner e string on 4th fret then 5th and so on.
    then 2nd string that is B string on 7th fret .... most important is timing with which u play first listen the song than time your fingers according to need.
    here "H" in the last part repesents "hammer on" means u will play on 5th fret and while it is vibrating strike your other finger on 7th fret.
    "p" represents "pull off" means when u struk your finger on 7th fret pull it rapidly while keeping your index finger on the 5th fret.
    this all requires practice. check other lesson as well because i m also a begginer and have very little knowledge.
