I'd load myself, and my steel, amp, seat, pedals, a 6-pack of Hamm's and a steak dinner into one of those circus cannons and allow myself, et al, to be fired across a parking lot in Mobile, Alabama, all while attempting to use the chart to play A Way To Survive.

I'd be interested to see if any Forumite can translate this into something readable by a musician.

Well, I have spent my whole life studying music, and I can only get as far as (maybe) Passing Tone, Neighbor Tone, arpeggiate is self explanatory, as is glissando, but basically most of this is purposefully obscure, and I can't tell if it's due to your terminology or what... why not explain it? Maybe it's a neat way of describing movement using your own terminology - seems silly to not provide a key, but perhaps that's what's fun for you.

This has been around for years - best views once you print it out. Look it over carefully, too.

Maybe someone can Tab it out for us?

You're going to be very disappointed when you hear this piece.

The only thing I can do now is go get stoned. And load the cannon.

You're right on with the Passing Tone, Neighbor Tone and given that I'm sure you know the rest.

The chart I posted here came from some old notes and charts I made and couldn't remember why.
So I had to think about it a awhile before it came to me.
I had written this chart to remind me of what I wanted to accomplish with the Chord progression and this tab was on the next page.
Here is a clip of the first 4 bars

You can’t slip anything by here about music. Folks here a pretty savvy!
I use this theory of Nonharmonic Tones just to point me in the direction I want to go when creating or adlibbing.
Most things I put into topics here come from old notes I run across in my research. Not trying to be a smartass just can’t fight the urge and write about it.
Some of it irritating some of it boring but in most I manage to do both!!

Universal Chart for PSG
/Just play the first 4 bars of the 12 bar song because you know the drummer can’t play the right beat, the guitar player is playing his Pentatonic scale too loud, the bass is soloing through the whole thing, the singer can’t carry a tune in a bucket and all are out of tune./
/Then pack your axe, pack a seat, amp and cut out. Who needs the hassle. /
