Tab Notes

From Swift lessons video Fretboard Freedom Lesson - Findng Pentatonics Across the Guitar Neck.

Licks are from all five patterns of Em Pentatonic. Licks 1, 2 and 3 were replicated in Am Pentatonic.

Remain aware of which patterns the licks are generated in. Stave 7 returns to the first position at the octave 12th fret.
