Not sure Well, on the left side of each horizontal line (representing guitar strings) you see a note name for the open string. A=440 is 5th fret on 1st (topmost) string. At any time location the numbers show at which fret the string has to be stopped; so just add the number you see, in semitones, to the open string note and you know the resulting pitch/musical note. The only thing not shown is the rhythm, for whatever reason - modern guitarists seem to be fine with that, probably because tabs usually are printed in parallel to musical score...
