If you don't know the timing, you can try to figure out what the timing is by looking at the time I put at the bottom of each TAB. It may be confusing at first, but you'll get used looking at it. I tried using music notation as close as possible. I'm pretty sure the notes and time are correct, though I may be wrong. Remember, if you don't like this version, there other versions of JLH in ftp sites. Corrections, additions, and/or distributions are encouraged, but please give credit where credit is due.
